Augrented Insights Report for 131 Avenue C

The four-story, 8-unit tenement at 131 Avenue C in the East Village, built in 1900 and currently owned by Allen Stein, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years, with the most pressing concerns being heating system reliability and water-related problems. From 2023 to early 2025, the building has faced multiple heating and hot water complaints, including significant issues in September 2023 and January 2024 affecting the entire building and individual apartments. More recently, in January 2025, there were complaints about mold conditions and a power outage, for which violations were issued.

Notable safety concerns were documented in September 2023, including an issue with smoke detectors that resulted in violations. The building's maintenance history also reveals persistent infrastructure challenges, including roof leaks, damaged fire retardant materials, and issues with building walls and appurtenances documented between 2018 and 2023. In addition to these problems, there have been multiple violations related to boiler issues and water systems.

The property has shown compliance with bedbug regulations, with zero infestations reported in the past two filing periods. Rodent inspections conducted between 2021 and 2025 have generally shown passing results, though there were instances of rat activity noted in early 2025. The building's history includes both resolved and ongoing violations, with the most recent violations primarily related to unsanitary conditions, heating systems, and safety equipment deficiencies.
