Augrented Insights Report for 251/2 Catherine Street

The 20-unit building at 251/2 Catherine Street, owned by Danny Guo, is a 6-story New Law tenement constructed in 1900. The property has experienced persistent heating and hot water issues, with multiple complaints recorded between December 2023 and January 2025, all affecting the entire building.

Interestingly, Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) has been unable to gain access to inspect the conditions despite these emergency complaints being filed. The building has also undergone several rodent inspections in recent years, with the most recent inspections in 2024-2025 showing passed results, except for one instance of rat activity in March 2024. The property has a documented history of maintenance violations, particularly evident in 2018 when multiple issues were recorded in the public hall areas, including water leaks and problems with fire-retardant materials on the 1st and 3rd stories.

More recently, in 2022, a defective fire escape step at the 4th floor level was noted as an active violation, with a penalty imposed of $1,250. The building has maintained an impressive record regarding bedbug infestations, with all annual reports from 2019 through 2024 showing zero affected units. While there was one food poisoning complaint recorded in 2018, the property appears to have addressed various safety compliance requirements such as carbon monoxide detector notifications and general maintenance issues, though some violations from 2018 related to building signage remain active.
