Augrented Insights
AI summary · updated June 2026

The two-family house at 236 Hooker Place in Mariners Harbor, built in 1901 and owned by George Kerten, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years, with particularly concerning patterns emerging in 2022-2023 and 2025. The property has documented multiple unsanitary conditions, including three separate reports of sewage-related problems in 2022-2023, multiple pest infestations, and significant plumbing issues including a leaky bathtub/shower. The building has also experienced persistent rodent problems, with recent inspections in March 2025 showing failures, though a subsequent April 2025 compliance inspection showed passing results. The second-floor apartment has several open Housing Maintenance Code violations from November 2022, including issues with broken ceramic floor tiles, leaky kitchen faucets, missing carbon monoxide detectors, mold conditions, and an active mouse infestation.

Additional concerning history includes a 2023 Department of Buildings inspection revealing problems with fire safety and sewage pipe connections in the cellar, though these violations were marked as resolved. There have been multiple complaints regarding egress issues in May 2021, though inspections at that time found no violations. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of unsatisfactory inspection results, with multiple complaints being closed due to inability to gain access for inspection, particularly for sewage and pest-related issues. While some violations have been resolved and systems updated (such as a 2025 passing rodent inspection), the property continues to exhibit maintenance challenges that affect basic habitability conditions.
