Augrented Insights Report for 119-21 Metropolitan Avenue

The 60-unit, 4-story building at 119-21 Metropolitan Avenue in Kew Gardens, owned by Margaret Brunn, has experienced numerous maintenance and compliance issues throughout 2024-2025. Most recently, between June 2025 and December 2024, there were multiple complaints regarding unsanitary conditions, water leaks, and plumbing issues. The building currently has several open violations from December 2024, particularly affecting apartment 2L, including problems with bedbugs, roaches, and damaged flooring.

The building's exterior has been a significant concern, with active Department of Buildings violations from March 2024 highlighting issues with the facade's condition, including spalling stucco, problematic mortar joints, and a defective fire escape. The building has also experienced various utility and maintenance issues, including non-emergency complaints about heating, plumbing, and appliance problems in June 2025. Additionally, there are three active Environmental Control Board violations from 2024 related to exterior building maintenance and security.

While the building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing zero infestation incidents since 2019, there were multiple pest-related complaints in 2025. The building's management has faced scrutiny for various code violations, including failure to properly maintain building systems and respond to violations in a timely manner. Despite these issues, the most recent rodent inspection from December 2023 resulted in a passing outcome, indicating some level of effective pest control.
