Augrented Insights Report for 917 42nd Street

The three-story, six-unit tenement building at 917 42nd Street in Borough Park, owned by Abe Friedman, has experienced a range of maintenance and safety issues over recent years. Most notably, in late September 2023, the building received violations for flooring and window-related issues, following inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

Earlier in 2023, there were multiple emergency complaints regarding safety equipment, including broken window guards, carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and problems with mold, all of which were subsequently addressed. The building's maintenance history shows recurring concerns about building safety systems, with prior issues in 2020 and structural concerns documented as far back as 2018, including problems with a retaining wall and illegal boiler operations that resulted in Environmental Control Board violations.

More recently, in December 2023, the building received multiple open violations affecting Apartment 2F, primarily related to maintenance of walls, doors, and windows. The property has maintained a clean record with no bedbug infestations reported over the past several years, with documentation showing zero infested units and successful eradication in previous years. While the building's age (constructed in 1930) and history of maintenance issues suggest ongoing management challenges, most violations appear to have been addressed promptly once documented, with some exceptions remaining open as of the latest inspection records.
