Augrented Insights Report for 42 Avenue A

42 Avenue A is a six-story, 28-unit residential building constructed in 1995 in Manhattan's East Village neighborhood, currently owned by Abraham Lokshin. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with notable complaints registered in 2022 and 2023, though each was promptly addressed and closed by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

Recent maintenance records indicate the building has had regular rodent inspections, all of which have passed since 2021, including the most recent inspections in 2025. The property underwent multiple emergency plumbing and heating system inspections, particularly in 2019 and 2022, showing some historical infrastructure challenges. More recent building issues include two electrical-related violations in 2024, resulting from unpermitted work for new light installations, though this violation was resolved with no penalties assigned.

The building's owners have faced several administrative violations regarding building maintenance documentation, including missed submissions for low-pressure inspections and energy benchmarking reports in 2021, though these violations were ultimately dismissed. Despite these challenges, the building has maintained an active Bedbug Reporting system since 2019, consistently reporting zero infestations. The most recent inspections and service requests indicate that while there have been periodic maintenance issues, the building management has generally complied with city requirements, promptly addressing most reported problems even when no violations were found upon inspection.
