Augrented Insights Report for 500 Grand Street

500 Grand Street is a 12-story, 258-unit residential building located in Manhattan's Lower East Side neighborhood, constructed in 1949 and currently owned by Jaime Cohen. The building has experienced several recurring maintenance issues in recent years, with notable problems including multiple heat and hot water outages affecting the entire building during 2024-2025, and persistent rodent activity requiring ongoing bait application throughout 2023-2025.

The property has several open lead paint violations as of late 2024, affecting multiple apartments (1D, 5C, GD, 8H) related to failure to properly address lead-based paint hazard requirements. The building's maintenance history reveals ongoing concerns with various systems and conditions, including unsanitary conditions, food establishment violations, and multiple emergency complaints regarding heat and hot water.

Significant past violations include gas-related infractions in 2021 regarding unauthorized commercial dryer installations in the basement laundry room, though these violations were subsequently resolved. The building has undergone several inspections and maintenance activities through 2023-2025, including regular rodent control efforts, and there appears to be active work continuing on addressing various building systems. While there have been instances of bedbug infestations reported between 2020-2022, the more recent reporting periods (2022-2024) show no reported infestations, and the property underwent multiple safety inspections during 2023-2024 with varying results on compliance.
