Augrented Insights Report for 952 42nd Street

The 16-unit, 4-story building at 952 42nd Street in Borough Park, owned by Daniel Ruben, is facing significant maintenance challenges as of December 2024. The property, built in 1915, has experienced persistent heating system issues, with multiple emergency heat/hot water complaints filed between November and December 2024, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building.

Most notably, a series of HPD complaints and violations in December 2024 documented ongoing problems with heat/hot water systems, including a violation for inadequate hot water at all fixtures in Apartment 3B and issues with the building's heating system access. Additionally, the building has been contending with pest issues, as evidenced by multiple violations in November 2024 regarding an infestation of mice and roaches in Apartment 3B.

Other documented concerns include the need for general maintenance work such as wall repairs, painting, and carbon monoxide detector replacement, particularly in Apartment 3B where several violations were issued between November and December 2024. While the building's bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024 show no documented infestations, the property has active Department of Buildings violations from 2019, 2020, and 2021 that remain unresolved as of this reporting. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with both heating systems and pest control, requiring attention to ensure resident comfort and safety.
