Augrented Insights Report for 178 Norfolk Street

178 Norfolk Street is a 20-unit, 6-story old law tenement building located in Manhattan's Lower East Side, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Michael Rosen. The building has experienced recurring plumbing issues over the past several years, with the most recent complaint in April 2024 involving water supply problems, though no violations were found upon inspection. Between December 2021 and January 2022, there were multiple water leak complaints (both heavy flow and slow leaks) that investigators were unable to access for inspection.

The building has also encountered various maintenance issues, including multiple housing code violations regarding safety equipment in 2021, specifically concerning defective carbon monoxide and smoke detectors in Apartment 12. Historical violations from 2018 indicate concerns about building safety procedures and documentation, particularly related to gas leak procedures and heating system access. The property has undergone regular inspections and was found to have no bedbug infestations reported in the past five years, with only one incident in 2017-2018 that was fully resolved.

The building has maintained a generally good record regarding rodent control, passing inspections consistently from 2022 through 2025. An open complaint regarding an illegal vent/exhaust installation from June 2025 suggests ongoing maintenance and compliance issues, while a 2021 complaint about parking lot lights affecting the building was determined to warrant no violations. The building's documented history shows a pattern of plumbing-related problems and safety equipment maintenance needs, though many individual complaints have been resolved without resulting violations.
