Augrented Insights Report for 1516 61st Street

1516 61st Street is a 4-unit, 2-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1931, currently owned by Bernard Perlow. The property has experienced persistent maintenance issues over the past several years, with the most significant being ongoing rodent-related problems.

Between 2019 and 2022, there were multiple reports and inspections indicating rat sightings and conditions attracting rodents, with several follow-up bait applications in 2022 showing continued infestations. The building has also faced recurring unsanitary conditions, particularly relating to garbage and recycling storage, with violations documented in 2019, 2021, and 2022. More recently, the building has been cited for failure to file required annual bedbug reports in 2023 and 2024, and for accumulation of refuse in the front yard, with these violations remaining open as of 2024.

In 2021, there were serious concerns regarding unpermitted construction work, with active Environmental Control Board violations related to work without a permit and failure to file a tenant protection plan, resulting in substantial penalty amounts currently due. The building has a documented history of heating system issues, with multiple emergency complaints regarding heat and hot water problems between 2019 and 2021, though some of these were resolved promptly according to HPD inspection records. While the property has undergone various inspections and received citations over the years, the persistence of rodent issues and recent violations regarding bedbug reporting and refuse management suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance and compliance.
