Augrented Insights Report

The two-unit, one-story multi-family residential building at 215 Hester Avenue in Little Hollywood, owned by Guido & Pierina Giosso Family, has experienced numerous municipal service interactions in early 2025, particularly in January, with multiple parking-related issues including two driveway blocking incidents that resulted in citations, a sidewalk parking complaint, and an abandoned vehicle case. The property has also faced several street maintenance concerns, with resolved complaints about pavement defects, garbage and debris, and graffiti on a public retaining wall, as well as an unresolved issue with trash dumping in the nearby park service area.

Earlier records show some housing-related activity, including a rent board housing inventory request in January 2025 that required assistance for proper address correction and application guidance. The building's history includes three fire-related incidents between 2018-2019, though none involved civilian injuries, with one case being an unintentional alarm transmission.

Several building-related complaints were filed between 2018-2019, including an illegal occupancy report (referred to DBI) and a weeds and grass complaint (found to have no merit). While the property has not been directly involved in tenant buyouts based on available data, nearby addresses experienced several buyout transactions between 2017-2023, with amounts ranging from $3,915 to $81,000 and involving one to three tenants per transaction, suggesting potential market activity in the vicinity of the Hester Avenue address.
