Augrented Insights Report

The property at 2153-2157 Grove Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1914, currently owned by Baker Places Grove Street L. The building has undergone significant renovations and improvements in recent years, most notably a major renovation in 2021-2022 valued at $600,000, which included kitchen and bathroom renovations, siding replacement, electrical panel work, new handrails, interior improvements, and voluntary seismic upgrades.

During this period, the building's fire safety systems were also updated, including sprinkler relocations and smoke detector installations. The property has experienced several maintenance and compliance issues, particularly during its recent renovations in 2021, when multiple complaints were filed regarding improper asbestos removal, work beyond permitted scope, and construction noise violations, though these were subsequently abated.

More recently, in early 2024, there were concerns about drainage issues in the lightwell and the installation of electrical conduit for security cameras without proper permits, though these matters have since been resolved. The building's infrastructure has seen ongoing improvements, including sewer lateral replacement, bathroom renovations (including ADA-compliant facilities), and various plumbing and electrical upgrades. The property's recent maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing safety and code compliance issues, with multiple permits issued for necessary repairs and upgrades, though there have been occasional instances of work being performed without proper permits.
