Augrented Insights Report for 161 Ludlow Street

161 Ludlow Street is a 5-story, 8-unit Old Law Tenement building located in New York City's Lower East Side, owned by Alex Laszlo and constructed in 1900. The building has experienced recurring rodent-related issues, particularly between 2019 and 2022, with multiple complaints filed through the 311 system regarding rat sightings and conditions attracting rodents, though subsequent inspections by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene generally resulted in either passing grades or only minor violations.

The property has maintained an active record of pest management, with consistent annual Bedbug Reporting filings between 2021 and 2024 showing zero infestation cases across all reporting periods, indicating effective pest control measures. Recent building inspections (2023-2025) have shown consistent compliance with rodent inspections, with all recent evaluations passing between June 2022 and June 2025.

However, there have been several unresolved complaints regarding access issues during inspections of illegal conversion and unauthorized plumbing work in 2024-2025, with inspectors unable to gain access on multiple attempts. Various safety-related complaints were filed in 2022, including concerns about gas utility conditions and after-hours work, though inspections typically showed no violations at the time. The building's long-standing record of annual bedbug reporting compliance and recent inspection pass rates suggest improved maintenance practices, despite the historical challenges with rodent-related complaints and access issues during certain inspections.
