Augrented Insights Report for 288 Grand Street

288 Grand Street is a 5-story, 12-unit old law tenement building located in the Lower East Side, built in 1910 and currently owned by Kwok Ng. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years, with the most recent concern being an open lighting issue reported in February 2025.

There have been two significant plumbing-related incidents (one in 2024 and one earlier in 2025) and multiple heating and hot water complaints affecting either individual apartments or the entire building between 2019 and 2021. The building has undergone several inspections related to pest control, with consistently favorable rodent inspection results over the past three years, and there is current documentation showing no active bedbug infestations since 2021. Recent structural and safety concerns include two building shake/vibration complaints in 2024-2025 and a 2025 inspection noting concerns about exterior facade conditions, though no violations were issued for these complaints.

The building's emergency systems were previously cited for deficiencies in 2020 regarding lighting for exits and public corridors, which resulted in a $625 penalty. Historical violations from 2019 focused on safety equipment in Apartment 3B, including smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector issues, along with various sanitation concerns related to garbage storage. While the building has had numerous complaints and violations over the years, inspections have generally shown these issues to be resolved, with the most recent Housing Maintenance Code Violations showing compliance with bedbug reporting requirements and no active violations related to building systems or safety equipment.
