Augrented Insights Report for 625 Caton Avenue

The 6-story, 48-unit building at 625 Caton Avenue in Windsor Terrace, owned by David Katz and constructed in 1936, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over the past few years. Most recently, in late September 2024, there were complaints regarding the fire escape, elevator maintenance, and unsanitary garbage/recycling storage, though inspections found no violations of housing laws. The building has faced recurring challenges with pests and sanitation, including multiple complaints about rodent signs in 2024 and a significant bedbug infestation in 2023.

Plumbing issues have persisted, with violations reported in 2024 regarding leaky faucets and defective plumbing in Apartment 5F. The building has also had two heating/hot water emergencies, one in 2024 and another in 2022, though heat and hot water were restored in both instances according to HPD records. Recent inspections have revealed several active violations related to building management requirements, including multiple failures to file energy benchmarking reports and submit Energy Efficiency Reports as required by NYC code.

These violations span from 2023 through 2024 and involve penalties for non-compliance. In 2021, there were safety-related issues with the building's guard rail/safety net system that resulted in a stop work order, and two Environmental Control Board violations were issued for improper installation of suspended scaffolding and lack of pedestrian protection during construction work. The building has maintained a generally acceptable safety record, with most recent inspections passing without major violations, and the bedbug reporting system shows no infestations reported since 2025.
