Augrented Insights Report for 1420 Avenue L

The 20-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement at 1420 Avenue L in Midwood, owned by Charles Rosemasser, has experienced significant maintenance issues in recent months. Between January and June 2025, there were multiple reports of water-related problems, including water supply issues, slow leaks, and damp spots, with inspection attempts often unable to gain access to units.

The building has also faced recurring plumbing problems, as evidenced by recent Housing Maintenance Code complaints in June 2025 regarding sink, bathtub, and toilet issues, with some classified as emergency situations. Inspection records from May 2024 show several violations in Apartment B5, including water leak issues, mold conditions, and various maintenance problems that were subsequently certified as corrected by mid-2024. Earlier records show the building underwent multiple Local Law 188/17 Compliance Inspections in late 2023 and 2024, with no violations found during inspections in January 2024.

A building-wide heat and hot water complaint was reported in January 2025, and there have been periodic issues with ceiling paint/plaster and water leaks throughout the building. Notably, there have been no reported bedbug infestations since at least 2019, and rodent inspections from 2011 and 2014 show one failure for unspecified reasons, though this is now several years old. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with access for inspections and prompt resolution of reported issues, as evidenced by multiple complaints being closed without inspection access confirmation from tenants.
