Augrented Insights Report for 54 Elizabeth Street

54 Elizabeth Street is a 7-story, 64-unit residential building located in Chinatown, constructed in 1890 and currently owned by Irene Law. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, most recently documented in November 2023, when HPD was unable to gain access for inspection. Similar heat-related complaints were frequent in December 2018, when violations were issued.

The building underwent significant emergency maintenance challenges in early 2020, including multiple plumbing and water supply issues, as well as concerns regarding fire escape safety. During 2018, the building faced boiler problems that resulted in violations from the Environmental Control Board, though these were resolved with no penalties imposed. Recent inspections and compliance records reveal ongoing maintenance attention, with the most recent violations from November 2023 involving door closure mechanisms at building entrances.

The building has consistently demonstrated compliance with rodent inspections, passing all inspections between 2019 and 2025. Bedbug reporting records from 2022 through 2024 show no infestations or related issues. The property has been responsive to various violation notices, including those related to fire escape access and interior maintenance, with most violations being certified as corrected. Recent years have shown improved compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with multiple consecutive filings showing zero infested units, and the building has maintained valid permits for necessary work.
