Augrented Insights Report for 116 Eldridge Street

116 Eldridge Street is a 5-story, 8-unit residential building located in the Lower East Side, built in 1909 and currently owned by David Sohayegh. The building has experienced persistent plumbing and water-related issues throughout recent years, with multiple complaints recorded between 2024-2025 concerning leaks, sink problems, and bathroom fixtures. Most recently, in December 2024, there were complaints regarding issues with ceilings, sinks, and bathtub/showers, though HPD was unable to complete inspections in these cases.

The building has also faced regulatory scrutiny, with several open and closed Housing Maintenance Code violations between 2022-2023, including concerns about fire escape safety and maintenance issues, though some violations were resolved through compliance actions. 2023 saw significant attention around the building's basement level, with multiple violations related to unpermitted alterations and illegal commercial use as a "Lotus Spa," including the construction of unauthorized massage rooms and plumbing installations. Environmental Control Board violations were issued in early 2023 for various infractions, including inadequate support for window air conditioning units and unauthorized occupancy, with penalties imposed totaling $5,010. While bedbug inspections between 2021-2025 reported zero infestations, the building has faced challenges with rodent activity, as evidenced by multiple inspections showing varying results, including "Rat Activity" findings in 2024 and 2025.

The most recent rodent inspection in June 2025 passed, suggesting some improvement in pest management. The building's history includes emergency complaints requiring prompt attention, particularly during late 2024, when multiple plumbing-related emergencies were reported. Access issues have been a recurring theme in both complaint resolution and inspection attempts, with several cases where HPD inspectors were unable to gain access to conduct necessary inspections. The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, consistently reporting zero infested units in recent years.
