Augrented Insights Report for 50 Avenue A

The 17-unit, 6-story co-op building at 50 Avenue A, known as Hearth House, has a complex record since its 1920 construction. The building has experienced significant compliance issues, particularly regarding building safety and maintenance requirements. Most notably, there are active violations related to failure to maintain required means of egress, with penalties totaling $34,250 across multiple Environmental Control Board citations issued between 2020-2021.

Additionally, there are multiple violations regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports between 2021-2024, and recent violations for not completing required external low-pressure inspections from 2022-2024, which was still active as of September 2024. Residential services and quality of life have generally improved over recent years. The building has consistently passed rodent inspections since 2019, with the most recent inspections showing compliance.

While there were heat and hot water complaints in 2022, these were closed without further issues being reported. Recent 311 complaints have primarily concerned food establishments in the building, with two incidents (in 2023 and 2025) involving food contamination issues reported to the Department of Health, though these were resolved through normal inspection processes. The current ownership under Stefanie Nelson appears to be more actively addressing compliance matters, as evidenced by recent bedbug reporting indicating no infestations reported between 2021-2024. The building has maintained a regular pattern of permit issuance for various work types, with the most recent permits focusing on electrical and plumbing work, suggesting ongoing maintenance and improvements to building systems.
