Augrented Insights Report for 218 1st Avenue

218 First Avenue is a 4-story, 12-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1900, currently owned by 218 First Avenue, LLC. The property has experienced recurring heating and water issues, with multiple heat and hot water complaints filed in early 2024, including one instance where HPD could not gain access to verify the problem.

Throughout 2023-2024, there were also significant maintenance concerns, including water leaks (both heavy and slow), unsanitary conditions with pest infestations, and electrical issues, culminating in a power outage in September 2023 that resulted in multiple violations. The building's most recent inspection in May 2024 revealed an open violation related to hot water supply in Apartment 4S. The property has a history of various violations requiring attention, including multiple Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) violations between 2022-2024 related to heat, water, and maintenance issues, particularly affecting Apartment 6W.

Two significant Department of Buildings violations were recorded in 2021-2022: one for unpermitted electrical work involving recessed lights and HVAC installation, and another concerning an unauthorized outdoor wooden structure with electrical connections. While the building has consistently passed rodent inspections in 2021-2025, there were periods of non-compliance noted in 2024. The property maintains an excellent record for bedbug management, with no reported infestations or eradications in the past six years, and the bedbug reports confirm no infestations since 2019.
