Augrented Insights Report for 1693 Putnam Avenue

1693 Putnam Avenue is a three-story, four-unit New Law Tenement building located in Ridgewood, built in 1916 and currently owned by Shi Wei Ye. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most substantial cluster of problems occurring in May 2022, when multiple complaints were filed regarding water leaks (including heavy flow and damp spots), mold, pest infestations, unsanitary garbage storage, and flooring concerns.

While these issues were subsequently closed, they represent a period of notable maintenance challenges. More recently, in 2023-2024, the building received several Housing Maintenance Code violations requiring attention to safety and maintenance matters, including missing window guards in Apartment 2R, blocked fire escapes with flower pots and household items, and various maintenance requirements related to carbon monoxide detection, gas leak procedures, and bedbug reporting. The building has maintained reasonably good hygiene and safety standards in recent inspections, with rodent inspections in 2016 and 2017 passing, and a 2024 rodent inspection also passing.

A bedbug infestation was reported in 2023, though records indicate proper eradication measures were taken, with the most recent report in 2024 showing one unit treated and successfully eradicated. The property has experienced multiple complaints regarding unpermitted work and unlicensed activities in late 2024, though most inspections either found no violations or the inspector was unable to gain access. The building's management has made progress in addressing safety compliance issues, as evidenced by the closure of multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations related to fire safety and building maintenance requirements between 2022 and 2024.
