Augrented Insights Report for 290 East 2nd Street

290 East 2nd Street is a 5-story, 20-unit old law tenement building constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Alicia Yau. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints registered in 2024 (most recently in December), and a pattern of complaints dating back to 2022, despite emergency responses from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) who often encountered access issues during inspections.

The building has faced several safety and maintenance challenges, including active violations related to low pressure external inspections (2023) and previous boiler issues documented in 2018 with associated Environmental Control Board penalties. Recent inspections have shown fluctuations in rodent activity, with reports of rat sightings in 2024 and 2023, though the most recent inspection from January 2025 passed without issues.

The building has also had various maintenance violations over the years, including problems with window guards (2019), self-closing doors (2019), and painting requirements (2020). While there were violations regarding bedbug reporting requirements in 2019-2020, the most recent bedbug reports from 2022-2023 show no infestation or eradication claims. The property has maintained relatively good compliance with general housing maintenance codes, though there are some pending administrative matters regarding inspection filings that require attention.
