Augrented Insights Report for 291 Broome Street

291 Broome Street is a 6-story, 15-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Man Sze. The property has experienced recurring pest and rodent issues over recent years, with 311 complaints and Housing Maintenance Code Complaints documenting unsanitary conditions and pest problems in 2019, 2020, and most recently in June 2023.

While inspections by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) and Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) have sometimes found no violations, there have been multiple instances of rat activity recorded in inspections throughout 2023 and 2024, though the most recent inspections in March 2025 and November 2024 passed. The building has a historical pattern of housing violations and concerns about illegal use, with multiple complaints between 2020-2021 regarding potential illegal conversions and unauthorized hotel rooms, though inspectors were generally unable to gain access to verify these claims.

In 2020, there were several significant Department of Buildings (DOB) Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations related to construction work, including issues with sidewalk shed safety, outdoor advertising, and pedestrian protection, with penalties totaling $36,250. The bedbug reporting record shows consistent compliance from 2021 to 2025, with no reported infestations in any dwelling units, and the building has passed all recent bedbug inspections. The property's maintenance history reflects ongoing challenges with vermin control, requiring regular inspections and compliance checks, though recent rodent control efforts appear to show improvement with passing inspection results in 2024 and 2025.
