Augrented Insights Report for 146 2nd Avenue

The 53-unit, 5-story tenement building at 146 2nd Avenue in the East Village, owned by Melvin Metz, has experienced numerous maintenance and habitability issues over the past several years. Most concerning are the ongoing electrical problems, with multiple "no lighting" complaints filed in January 2025 that remain open as of July 2025. The building has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues, with multiple complaints in 2024 and one in 2023, though some were closed with reported repairs.

The property has also faced significant rodent challenges, with regular inspections showing "Rat Activity" from 2023 through 2025, including failed compliance inspections in March 2025 and November 2024. The building's maintenance history reveals various health and safety concerns, including two bedbug violations in 2022-2023 and multiple food safety complaints regarding nearby establishments in 2024-2025. Several violations were documented in 2022 regarding Apartment 1AR, including problems with pests (roaches and mice), missing detectors, and maintenance issues, though these were certified as corrected by September 2022. There has been consistent documentation of rat activity through official inspections, suggesting persistent pest control challenges.

While the building has experienced periodic infrastructure issues, including problems with the bell/buzzer/intercom system and flooring, these complaints were either investigated with no violations found or were addressed through normal compliance processes. The property has maintained proper filing of bedbug reports, showing eradication efforts, though it should be noted that one unit reported infestation in the most recent period (2024-2025). Two complaints regarding illegal work and gas utility issues were investigated but no violations were found. Recent health department inspections have responded to food establishment complaints, though resolution details suggest these relate to nearby businesses rather than the building itself.
