Augrented Insights Report for 191 Avenue A

The four-story, three-unit tenement building at 191 Avenue A, owned by Robinson Severino, has experienced numerous maintenance challenges in recent years, particularly between 2022 and 2024. The most significant issues involve recurring pest problems, with multiple complaints about pests (including a documented cockroach infestation) and associated violations in 2022-2024, though inspections often faced access issues. The building has also experienced several heat and hot water outages, with emergency complaints filed in February and December 2022. Substantial plumbing and maintenance issues were documented in July 2022 in unit 3, including problems with the bathtub/shower, sink, toilet, and ceiling, resulting in multiple violations.

More recent concerns have arisen regarding potential unauthorized modifications to the property. In 2024, two active ECB violations were issued for occupancy contrary to DOB records, specifically relating to a bike cafe and store operation on the first floor, which was previously designated as a funeral establishment according to Certificate of Occupancy #69922. Additionally, there were complaints in 2024 regarding illegal plumbing work. The building has undergone various inspections for rodent activity between 2023 and 2025, with most recent inspections in April 2025 showing compliance, though earlier inspections in 2024 indicated rat activity and bait application requirements.

Interestingly, while the bedbug reporting shows fluctuating infestations between 2022-2024, the most recent reports (2024-2025) indicate no active infestations. The property has a history of construction-related issues, with Stop Work Orders issued in 2018 for two separate projects, and there were violations issued in 2024 for failure to conduct or file final inspections for permitted work. Compliance inspections in 2023-2024 have shown mixed results, with some conditions requiring correction but generally indicating responsiveness to regulatory oversight. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic services and environmental conditions, though recent rodent inspections indicate some improvement in pest management.
