Augrented Insights Report

The 42-unit, 7-story apartment building at 795 Pine Street, constructed in 1913 and currently owned by 795 Pine II LLC, is experiencing significant ongoing maintenance issues, particularly with its elevator system. Most concerning is a string of recent complaints (September 2024) regarding persistent elevator outages, with residents reporting dangerous instances of getting stuck and lengthy periods of non-functionality, including a notable failure in September 2024 following only 17 days of operation after a previous repair. The building has also accumulated multiple open fire violations (as of December 2024) relating to the sprinkler system, fire escape maintenance, test and maintenance documentation, emergency plan records, and alarm system maintenance, suggesting serious safety compliance concerns.

Recent building maintenance activities include an ongoing $160,000 general repair and maintenance project initiated in September 2024 to restore the building's exterior. The property has undergone several renovation projects in recent years, including multiple unit conversions and upgrades between 2019-2024, such as kitchen relocations, bathroom rehabs, and washer/dryer installations in various units, with the most recent work focusing on general repairs. Historical issues include notable complaints in 2017 regarding lead paint handling violations, elevator problems in 2009, and various construction-related complaints.

The building's management has faced criticism for communication regarding maintenance issues, particularly regarding the elevator system, with residents expressing frustration over the frequency of outages and lack of timely repairs. While some fire code violations from previous years have been abated, the persistence of current violations indicates ongoing challenges with maintaining safety systems. The building's location near Powell Street has generated some external complaints regarding water damage to adjacent properties in 2018-2019, though these appear to be separate from current building issues.
