Augrented Insights Report for 8798 21st Avenue

8798 21st Avenue is a four-story, 16-unit New Law Tenement building located in Bath Beach, built in 1915 and currently owned by Jeno Guttmann. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues, with the most recent cluster of complaints in 2025 focusing on rodent activity and wall conditions, resulting in HPD violations. The building has undergone multiple inspections for pest issues, with rat activity documented in 2025, 2018, and other years dating back to 2010.

Between late 2024 and 2025, there were concerns about electrical issues, including power outages, problems with windows and doors, and more recent complaints about paint and plaster conditions. The building has documented violations requiring repairs to public hall ceilings and walls, window frames, and a roof leak, with some violations issued in 2024 still showing as active in 2025. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations since 2019, with no reported cases in the past six years.

Recent building maintenance history shows a mixture of responded and unresolved issues, with several inspections being unable to gain access to apartments for verification of complaints, particularly regarding heat/hot water and lighting problems in late 2024. The Department of Buildings issued a citation in 2024 regarding unauthorized curb cut installation, which has been resolved. The building's age and construction type suggest typical New York tenement layout and common areas. While many violations have been closed after repairs were made, such as those regarding fire retardant plaster and various repair needs, the building continues to experience periodic maintenance issues requiring attention, particularly regarding pest control and general upkeep of common areas.
