Augrented Insights
AI summary · updated June 2026

The three-unit, three-story building at 89 Lawrence Avenue in Kensington, owned by Nathan Berliner, has maintained a generally good record since its construction in 2007. The property has consistently filed its mandatory annual bedbug reports on time, with the most recent reports from May 2024 and May 2023 indicating no bedbug infestations in the previous reporting periods (November 2022 - October 2023 and November 2021 - October 2022), with zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units reported.

The building has experienced four Housing Maintenance Code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements between 2021 and 2024, all of which have been properly closed. These violations occurred on March 31, 2023, April 17, 2024, and two on April 19, 2021, all citing the same issue regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports in accordance with HPD rules. However, it is worth noting that while violations were issued for this reporting requirement, the subsequent filings in 2023 and 2024 demonstrated compliance and confirmed the absence of bedbug infestations. The building's recent history shows proper attention to rectifying violations, with no open violations currently on record.
