Augrented Insights Report for 309 East 5th Street

309 East 5th Street is a 6-story, 34-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Faith Popcorn. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant cluster of complaints occurring in June 2025, including problems with heat/hot water, plumbing (radiators), door/window issues, appliance problems, and an unsanitary condition related to pests. HPD inspections during this period were unsuccessful due to access issues.

The building's maintenance history shows persistent heating system challenges, with similar complaints recorded in January 2025 and multiple radiator-related issues. Historical violations from 2019 included concerns about hot water supply, water leaks, and various maintenance problems in Apartment 21. The property has undergone several safety inspections, with mixed results. While recent rodent inspections in 2025 showed compliance, there have been multiple instances of rat activity recorded between 2023 and 2025.

The building's bedbug reports for the past six years indicate minimal infestation issues, with only one unit affected in 2019. Environmental Control Board violations from 2019 and 2020 noted problems with tenant protection plans and improper building maintenance during renovation work, though these were ultimately resolved. The Department of Buildings has conducted several inspections and issued permits for work on the property, with the most recent permits issued in 2020-2021. Two food poisoning complaints were investigated by DOHMH in 2023, though they were determined to be isolated incidents.
