Augrented Insights Report for 717 Avenue C

717 Avenue C is a 24-unit New Law tenement building located in Kensington, constructed in 1923 and currently owned by Yitzchak Shwartz. The building has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues throughout 2024-2025, with multiple complaints between October 2024 and May 2025, some resulting in violations. Recent inspections in May 2025 also documented pest problems, with multiple service requests for unsanitary conditions.

Notable violations were issued in November 2024 for Apartment D3, including defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, broken plaster surfaces, and the presence of mold in the bathroom. The building has a documented history of rodent activity, with rat presence confirmed in inspections conducted in November 2023 and December 2023, as well as in previous years, though an inspection in January 2021 passed. A bedbug infestation was reported in the 2023-2024 filing period, with one unit affected and subsequently treated.

The property has faced several regulatory challenges, including a heating system access violation in February 2024 and multiple ECB violations in 2019 related to unauthorized renovation work in Apartment 6C, resulting in fines totaling $25,000 that were later resolved. Recent service requests in 2025 have included plumbing issues affecting toilets, for which violations were issued, though HPD inspections found no significant housing law violations for the pest complaints. The building's record shows ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges, particularly regarding building systems and pest management.
