Augrented Insights
AI summary · updated June 2026

This three-unit, three-story residential building at 434 Beach 69th Street in Arverne, owned by Sylva Foster, has a history dating back to 1920 and is classified as a HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A building. The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past five years, most notably two emergency incidents: a heat and hot water outage in February 2021, which was resolved by HPD within two days, and a plumbing water supply issue in December 2019 that could not be inspected due to lack of access.

The building has undergone regular HPD inspections and received multiple bedbug report violations between 2021 and 2024, with all violations marked as closed. However, the most recent bedbug filings from 2022-2023, 2023-2024, and 2024-2025 show no instances of infestation, eradication, or re-infestation in any dwelling units, suggesting successful management of this issue. A specific safety violation was recorded in May 2021 regarding self-closing doors in the entrance to the second-floor apartment, though this violation was also subsequently closed. The building's maintenance history indicates a pattern of prompt response to most reported issues, though access challenges for inspections have occurred, and there was at least one documented instance of heat and hot water service disruption affecting tenant comfort.
