Augrented Insights Report for 68 2nd Avenue

68 2nd Avenue is a 6-story, 25-unit New Law Tenement building located in Manhattan's East Village, constructed in 1907 and currently owned by Nader Ohebshalom. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2025, with three identical complaints in March and May reporting conditions in the entire building, though inspections were unable to gain access to verify the problems.

Other significant maintenance concerns include ongoing radiator plumbing issues (with an open complaint from February 2025), mold problems, and safety concerns regarding smoke detectors, particularly affecting 6th floor Apartment 22. The building's violation history reveals multiple safety and maintenance issues, including a serious boiler problem documented in June 2023 involving leaks and corrosion of a Weil McLain gas-fired boiler, and an incident in 2022 involving decorative sandstone falling from a first-floor windowsill. Between 2018 and 2024, the building has shown varying bedbug infestation rates, with one reported case in 2021 and no reported cases in 2023-2024.

Recent rodent inspections show consistent passing results, with only one failed inspection in April 2023. The building has also had several emergency maintenance calls regarding heat, plumbing, and safety systems, though many inspections were unable to be completed due to access issues. While most historical violations have been resolved, several safety and maintenance concerns persisted into 2025, including multiple instances of HPD being unable to complete inspections for various complaints.
