Augrented Insights Report

The 6-unit apartment building at 230 Lowell Street, located in Croker Amazon, is a 3-story structure built in 1914 and currently owned by 230 Lowell Street LLC. The property has undergone numerous maintenance and renovation projects over the years, with the most significant work occurring in the 2000s.

Major improvements included a roof replacement in 2007, window replacements in 2007, and various unit renovations in 2006-2008, including kitchen and bathroom remodels. The building has faced several compliance issues, particularly in the early 2000s, with multiple violations regarding fire safety systems, security requirements, and maintenance matters, though all these violations were officially abated by June 15, 2001. There were also complaints about illegal modifications and unpermitted work in 2006-2008, and some tenant complaints about heating, plumbing, and maintenance issues during this period.

In recent years, there have been ongoing concerns about parking violations near the property, with multiple citations issued between 2024-2025 for vehicles blocking driveways and parking on sidewalks, though enforcement officers were unable to locate the violators in some cases. A noise complaint was registered in July 2024 that remains open as of the latest information. The building's electrical systems were updated in 2009 with a 400-amp service installation, and various maintenance work has continued to be performed, with the most recent building permit activity from 2015 being for street space use.
