Augrented Insights Report for 829 52nd Street

829 52nd Street is a 3-story, 12-unit residential building in Borough Park, constructed in 1926 and currently owned by Bo Zhu. The property has experienced recurring rodent issues, with rodent activity documented in inspections from 2021 through 2024, though the most recent December 2024 inspection passed. Multiple complaints filed in November 2024 regarding various building systems (including door, intercom, lighting, and garbage storage) resulted in HPD inspectors being unable to gain access for verification.

The building has several active Housing Maintenance Code violations, including unfiled annual bedbug reports, issues with garbage storage, and safety concerns such as obstructed fire escapes and missing safety notifications. There's an ongoing Environmental Control Board violation from 2021 related to illegal basement occupancy and gas appliances, with a $6,250 penalty. The Department of Buildings records show multiple violations for failure to file required external low-pressure inspections from 2018-2023, and two illegal conversion complaints from 2024 and 2021 where inspectors were unable to gain access. The building has had various electrical and unsanitary condition complaints over the past several years, including issues with lighting, doorways, and garbage handling.

The property has a particularly concerning history of maintenance and compliance issues, with multiple violations related to building safety and habitability. These include historical problems with garbage storage, lighting, and pest control, as well as more recent concerns about building access during inspections. While some violations have been addressed or closed through inspections, several remain open as of 2025, including those related to safety requirements and equipment maintenance. The building's age (nearly 100 years old) and its status as a New Law Tenement may contribute to some of these persistent issues, but the frequency and nature of the violations suggest ongoing maintenance challenges.
