Augrented Insights Report for 165 Attorney Street

The 5-story, 18-unit tenement building at 165 Attorney Street in the Lower East Side, owned by Armand Serfaty, has experienced recurring heating issues in recent years, with emergency complaints filed in both May 2025 and March 2022 regarding lack of heat and hot water. The building has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections, successfully passing nine consecutive inspections between 2019 and 2025.

Notably, the property underwent significant construction activity in 2022, which led to multiple tenant safety violations in June 2021 for failure to post/distribute required safety documentation during work on the façade, though these violations were later resolved. The building's maintenance history shows regular compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with no reported infestations in the past five years, and the most recent 2025 report indicates zero units affected.

Despite the heating issues, the building has maintained relatively good overall conditions, with all Housing Maintenance Code complaints being closed after investigation. Recent building permits from 2022-2024 indicate ongoing maintenance and improvement work, with the most recent permits issued in April 2024 for various work types, including architectural and plumbing modifications. The property has generally demonstrated responsiveness to regulatory requirements, though there have been instances of inspectors being unable to gain access during certain inspections in 2020-2021.
