Augrented Insights Report for 478 Woodward Avenue

478 Woodward Avenue, a 6-unit, 3-story residential building constructed in 1930 in Ridgewood, is currently owned by Arkadiusz Borowski and has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly regarding heat and hot water systems. Most notably, there were heating emergencies in January 2023 and December 2022, with violations issued regarding inadequate heat supply, particularly affecting apartment 3L.

As of March 2023, there are open Class C violations related to heating system access and self-closing doors for apartment 3L, along with ongoing concerns regarding annual bedbug reporting compliance. The building's maintenance record indicates persistent challenges with building systems, including open violations for failing to file required boiler and external low-pressure inspection reports from 2019 and 2024 respectively.

There have also been multiple attempted inspections for Local Law 188/17 compliance between 2022-2025, though inspectors were unable to gain access during their attempts. While the building has passed recent rodent inspections (most recent in September 2024), the property has had recurring issues with heating systems, as evidenced by multiple 311 complaints and Housing Maintenance Code violations related to heat and hot water systems. However, some positive developments include the resolution of several administrative violations in December 2022 regarding safety notice postings, and the building has maintained a bedbug-free record in recent annual filings.
