Augrented Insights Report

The 280 Brighton Avenue property is a 4-story, 27-unit mixed-use residential building with commercial spaces, constructed in 2016 and currently owned by Vgm Realty Llc. The building has undergone several significant improvements, particularly in 2016 during its initial occupation period, including the installation of comprehensive fire safety systems (sprinklers, alarms), electrical infrastructure for 28 residential units, and commercial tenant improvements for a Wells Fargo bank branch and a Fate Tea House.

Recent activity includes a 2022-2023 renovation of tea house equipment and related electrical work. Of particular concern are recent fire safety violations issued in January 2024 related to alarm systems, extinguishers, and sleeping area requirements, with one violation still marked as open. The building has experienced several construction-related disturbances, notably in 2020 when early morning construction work triggered tenant complaints about excessive noise.

A recent 2024 complaint about a missing side sewer vent cover remains open. The property underwent substantial infrastructure work during its initial construction phase, including the installation of 25 bathrooms, kitchen sinks, and other plumbing systems, as well as major electrical work including the installation of various panelboards and receptacles. Recent 311 calls have primarily concerned external maintenance issues such as garbage, debris, and sidewalk conditions, which have generally been resolved through appropriate channels.
