Augrented Insights Report for 181 East 2nd Street

181 East 2nd Street is a 6-story, 50-unit old law tenement building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Luis Romero. The property has exhibited ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly in the last two years. As of May 2025, there are two open complaints with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) regarding plumbing issues: a slow water leak reported in May 2025 and problems with a sink basin reported in March 2025.

The building has experienced recurring plumbing issues, with multiple complaints about radiators, water supply, and bathroom facilities between 2024 and 2025. Additionally, there have been concerns about heat/hot water availability, with a complaint filed in January 2025, though HPD was unable to gain access for inspection. The building has undergone several inspections and received enforcement actions related to safety equipment and maintenance requirements.

In December 2024, violations were issued to apartments 4B and 5A regarding defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and painting standards. Apartment 1C has multiple recorded violations from late 2024, including issues with mold, water damage, and pest infestation. The property is currently facing three active Department of Buildings violations related to required reporting and inspections, including FISP Cycle 9B inspections and energy benchmarking requirements, with penalties totaling $4,125 for failure to submit required reports. However, the building has maintained good records for bedbug and rodent inspections, with no reported infestations in recent years and passing inspections in 2022, 2023, and 2025.
