Augrented Insights Report for 1037 51st Street

1037 51st Street in Borough Park is a 6-story, 55-unit residential building constructed in 1940 and currently owned by Joseph Kain. The property has experienced persistent water-related issues, with multiple complaints regarding leaks, damp spots, and water damage documented between October 2023 and February 2024. These issues were investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), though most inspections did not result in formal violations.

The building has also faced structural concerns, as evidenced by three separate complaints about building shaking or vibrations in late 2024 and early 2025, with inspectors unable to gain access during two of the visits. A significant number of open and resolved Housing Maintenance Code violations have been recorded, including an open violation from April 2024 regarding missing smoke detector notices in the lobby, and previously identified issues with self-closing doors on various floors. The building's maintenance history shows regular inspections and some notable improvements, including three consecutive years of reporting zero bedbug infestations (2021-2024) and a passed rodent inspection in September 2024.

There are several active and resolved Department of Buildings violations related to administrative requirements, such as failure to file pressure inspections and energy efficiency reports, though most have been dismissed or resolved through compliance. Recent building improvements include the issuance of permits in 2018 and 2019 for unspecified work, and a 2024 HPD inspection that yielded no violations for various complaints about ceilings, water leaks, and roofing issues. The property has undergone multiple facade and systems inspections per NYC requirements, indicating regular oversight, though some structural concerns and maintenance issues persist.
