Augrented Insights Report for 97 Allen Street

97 Allen Street is a 5-story, 16-unit old law tenement building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Louis Galpern. The property has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with the most pressing current concern being an open complaint about construction lead dust in common areas and apartments, filed in November 2024.

Active violations related to external low-pressure inspections from 2019 and 2023 remain outstanding as of September 2024. The building has a documented pattern of fire safety and security violations, particularly in 2018, when multiple apartments (13, 16, and 9) were cited for missing or malfunctioning smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and door self-closing mechanisms. Recent inspections and complaints reveal ongoing safety and maintenance challenges, including a recently reported broken window guard (November 2024) and recurring rodent activity, with the most recent inspection in April 2025 showing rat presence.

The building's management has periodically failed to meet bedbug reporting requirements, as evidenced by violations in 2021, 2023, and 2024, though subsequent reports for 2025 show no infested units. Between 2022 and 2025, the building has generally passed initial rodent inspections but has had several "failed for other reasons" inspections, indicating intermittent pest control challenges. While the building has demonstrated compliance with some housing maintenance code requirements, the pattern of violations suggests persistent issues affecting resident safety and building maintenance standards.
