Augrented Insights Report for 28 Orchard Street

28 Orchard Street is a five-story, 12-unit residential building located in Chinatown, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Shu Liang. The building has experienced several significant structural and maintenance issues in recent years, with the most critical being the 2024 Partial Vacate Order due to safety concerns related to the roof condition, which was linked to adjacent building #30 Orchard Street and resulted from severely cracked and buckling panels. This condition rendered the entire roof of 28 Orchard Street uninhabitable, according to a February 2024 violation.

Additional structural concerns were documented in August 2019, when damage was observed to the rear yard patio of apartment #2B, attributed to falling debris from the adjacent building. The building's maintenance history shows periodic issues with basic services, including a heat/hot water emergency complaint in November 2018, and water leak concerns in September 2018, though inspections found these issues were not accompanied by violations. In 2018, several violations were documented regarding safety notifications that needed to be posted in the first-story public hall, including requirements for smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and gas leak procedures, though these were certified as corrected by December 2018.

More recent building evaluations have shown improvement, with the building passing multiple rodent inspections in 2023 and 2024, despite one "Rat Activity" finding in July 2023. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all annual reports from 2020 to the present showing zero affected units. The most recent inspections in 2024-2025, including a December 2024 inspection of the sidewalk shed, found no violations, though the building does still have an active 2024 DOB violation regarding the partial vacate order for the roof condition.
