Augrented Insights Report for 840 East 8th Street

840 East 8th Street, a 6-story, 168-unit residential building in Midwood owned by Leonard Strum and constructed in 1953, has experienced multiple maintenance and safety concerns over the past few years. Most notably, there was a significant cluster of complaints in 2023, including multiple issues with fire escapes, window guards, and general maintenance problems such as electrical outlets, door/windows, and water leaks.

The building experienced five separate complaints regarding building shaking/vibration in May 2023, though inspections found no violations at that time. The building has an ongoing elevator service concern, with an active complaint as of February 2025 regarding the single elevator device with no alternate service. There is a currently open violation related to energy efficiency score display requirements from December 2023.

Apartment 6M has documented maintenance issues including problems with plaster surfaces, kitchen fixtures, and window-related concerns. The property has shown consistent pest control measures, with no bedbug infestations reported in the most recent annual filings (2023-2024), and recent rodent inspections in 2024 and 2025 have passed. While many complaints have been addressed (most were closed with no violations found), there remain open violations and recurring issues that suggest ongoing maintenance challenges within the building.
