Augrented Insights Report for 17-85 215th Street

The 16-story, 290-unit residential building at 17-85 215th Street in Bay Terrace, owned by Ira Kaye and constructed in 1969, has experienced several concerning health and maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, between May 2024 and June 2024, there were multiple complaints regarding indoor air quality problems, including human feces, as well as issues with unsanitary animal conditions on private property. The building also faced challenges with the Local Law 188/17 compliance inspections, with three consecutive inspection attempts in 2023-2024 resulting in access denial, though prior inspections from 2021 and 2022 found no violations.

A recent Environmental Control Board violation from October 2024 was issued for failure to submit the required parking structure initial observation report by the August 1, 2024 deadline, though no penalties were imposed. The building's maintenance history shows periods of both compliance and violation, particularly regarding elevator safety. Multiple elevator-related violations were recorded in 2020-2021, though these were ultimately resolved.

Recent inspections in 2024 showed some improvement, with a passed rodent inspection in September 2024 following a failed inspection in June 2024. While the building has maintained a consistent record of no bedbug infestations in the past six years (2019-2024), the concentration of health-related complaints in 2024, particularly regarding indoor air quality and unsanitary conditions, suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. Three separate permit applications for various work were issued between 2018 and 2020, showing some level of proactive maintenance activity, though the nature of these permits is not specified in the provided data.
