Augrented Insights Report for 523 East 12th Street

The 5-story, 18-unit tenement building at 523 East 12th Street in the East Village, owned by Steven Oved, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in late 2024, there were multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions including pests and garbage/recycling storage issues. The building has a persistent history of plumbing and electrical maintenance challenges, with open violations from August 2023 related to defective sink connections and leaky faucets in the 2nd story Apartment 4.

Safety concerns have been documented, including fire egress violations and problems with self-closing doors, though some violations from 2023 have been resolved. The property has undergone regular inspections for rodent control, with one failed inspection in late 2024 signaling potential pest management challenges. While the building's bedbug reporting history from 2020 through 2024 shows consistently zero infested units, indicating effective pest management in this regard, there have been ongoing concerns about addressing other maintenance issues.

Multiple complaints about work being done without proper permits were filed between 2020 and 2025, though most inspections resulted in no violations being found. A current active violation from September 2024 regarding failure to file the 2023 external low-pressure inspection remains open. The building's recent maintenance record exhibits a pattern of requiring repeated inspection follow-ups, suggesting challenges in achieving consistent compliance with maintenance requirements.
