Augrented Insights Report for 170 Avenue O

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 170 Avenue O in Bensonhurst, owned by Rosaria Sciutu and built in 1925, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over recent years. Most notably, there are ongoing concerns with standing water on the property, with recent complaints filed in July 2024 regarding both sidewalk puddles and sewer drainage issues, with one such complaint still in progress as of July 2025. The building has a documented history of heat and hot water problems, particularly between late 2018 and early 2020, with multiple emergency complaints filed by tenants.

Recent violations suggest ongoing maintenance concerns, with open violations regarding annual bedbug reporting requirements from 2021-2024, and an active violation from August 2024 regarding an unpermitted boiler installation. The property has also faced critical safety issues, particularly regarding its boiler systems. In November 2020, the building was cited for dangerous carbon monoxide levels from both a water heater and boiler, leading to cease-use orders.

While these specific violations were eventually resolved, there remains an active boiler-related ECB violation as of August 2024 regarding an unpermitted boiler installation from 2022, with a $500 penalty imposed. The building has undergone various inspections and received multiple fines related to unauthorized unit conversions and failure to comply with correction orders, particularly during 2020-2021, though many of these violations were ultimately dismissed. Recent infrastructure concerns were raised in 2024 regarding the boiler's defective/inoperative status, and there have been past issues with electrical wiring and plumbing systems, though some complaints were found to be unsubstantiated upon inspection.
