Augrented Insights Report for 153 Norfolk Street

153 Norfolk Street is a 6-story, 50-unit Old Law Tenement building located in the Lower East Side, built in 1912 and currently owned by Doron Yaghoubi. The building has experienced persistent elevator issues throughout 2025, with multiple active complaints regarding single device operation and no alternate service, including complaints filed as recently as June 2025. In mid-2025, there was also a rat sighting reported in June, though recent inspections have generally passed rodent inspections.

The building has undergone several governmental inspections and received various violation notices over the past two years, with notable concerns in 2023-2024 regarding hot water supply (affecting apartments 4B and 5G), fire escape conditions, and door maintenance. Recent maintenance history shows a pattern of door/window-related complaints, with multiple emergency complaints in June 2025, though these were found not to violate housing laws upon inspection. The building has also maintained its bedbug-free status in the most recent reporting period (2024-2025), with only one reported infestation in 2022 that was reportedly eradicated.

Environmental Control Board violations from 2023-2024 indicate ongoing concerns with building maintenance, including issues with the building wall and tenant protection plan compliance. The property has generally passed regular inspections, including rodent inspections, during 2023-2025, though there are active penalties related to some maintenance issues. The building's violation history shows both resolved and active issues, with most violations being addressed and certified as corrected.
