Augrented Insights Report for 1225 Avenue R

The 6-story, 65-unit building at 1225 Avenue R, owned by Lennard Katz and constructed in 1939, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there have been multiple heat and hot water outages, with the most recent incident occurring in January 2025 affecting the entire building. In April 2024, the building faced multiple urgent issues including heavy water leaks and mold problems, which resulted in Housing Maintenance Code violations.

Apartment 3D was particularly impacted during this period, with violations recorded for mold, water leakage, and deficiencies in window guards, smoke detectors, and carbon monoxide detectors. The building's maintenance history shows recurring problems with heat and hot water systems, as evidenced by multiple HPD complaints in 2019 and 2025. Additional concerns have included water leaks, stairway condition issues, and various sanitation matters related to garbage and recycling storage.

The property has also been subject to various Department of Buildings complaints between 2018 and 2025, including issues related to an illegally cut curb for parking access (resolved by 2023) and a 2021 violation regarding energy efficiency score display requirements. Notably, there was one documented bedbug infestation in 2020, though subsequent annual reports from 2021 to 2024 show no further infestations. The building's permit history shows at least one issued permit in 2020 related to exterior work.
