Augrented Insights Report for 81 Orchard Street

Located in New York City's Lower East Side, 81 Orchard Street is a 6-story, 30-unit residential building constructed in 1910. The property has experienced several notable issues in recent years, with the most concerning being multiple safety-related violations. In December 2024, violations were issued for non-functioning smoke detectors, and in September 2024, there were multiple citations related to fire escape maintenance, including rust removal and painting requirements.

The building also has documented plumbing issues, with a bathtub/shower violation recorded in December 2024, and historical problems including unpermitted laundry equipment installation and inadequate sprinkler systems from 2020, for which there are still active Environmental Control Board violations totaling $4,500 in penalties. The property has shown recurring maintenance challenges through its complaint history. Between late 2024 and early 2025, there were issues with windows, smoke detectors, and various interior conditions including paint/plaster problems.

Notably, there are also open violations regarding the illegal alteration of a garbage room and broken plaster in two apartments (10 and 16) as of 2024. The building has demonstrated consistent compliance with rodent inspections, passing all inspections from 2020 through 2025, and has maintained a bedbug-free record according to reports filed between 2022 and 2024. While the building has periodic maintenance issues, it has shown some responsiveness to tenant complaints, as evidenced by multiple violations being closed after inspection, though several critical safety-related violations remain open as of 2025.
