Augrented Insights Report for 802 Seneca Avenue

The 4-unit, 3-story tenement building at 802 Seneca Avenue in Ridgewood, owned by Todor Sfera and constructed in 1930, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, from 2023-2024, there were multiple problems regarding doors and windows, including a series of emergency complaints in June 2023 and an August 2023 emergency complaint that resulted in violations being issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

The building has also faced recurring heat and hot water issues, with complaints recorded in January 2023, February 2021, and November 2019, though these were reportedly resolved upon inspection. The property has been under scrutiny for fire safety concerns, particularly in September 2023 when multiple violations were documented regarding fire escape obstructions and defects, including a violation for an obstructed fire passageway that resulted in a $1,250 penalty through the Environmental Control Board.

A 2024 inspection revealed a need for immediate fire guard provision due to observed fire hazards. Additionally, there are multiple active violations regarding the failure to file external low pressure inspections from 2018-2023, which remain unresolved according to the most recent records. The building's pest control record shows no bedbug infestations reported in the past six years (2019-2024), but there have been recurrent rodent activity issues, with inspections in 2024 and previous years (2013-2019) showing varying results, including recent rat activity in September and November 2024.
