Augrented Insights Report for 236 East 5th Street

The 6-story, 30-unit tenement building at 236 East 5th Street in the East Village, owned by Peter Tran, has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues over recent years, particularly since early 2025. Most notably, there are currently three open complaints regarding unsanitary conditions (pests) and door-related problems as of May 2025. The building has experienced recurring issues with door maintenance, with multiple complaints filed between February and May 2025, though several of these complaints were closed after inspections found no housing law violations.

Other concerning maintenance issues emerged in 2024, including a slow water leak complaint (February 2025) and several Housing Maintenance Code violations related to hot water availability in Apartments C3, C5, and C6, as well as access to the building's heating system. The building's maintenance history reveals persistent concerns with safety systems and infrastructure, including multiple violations related to energy efficiency reporting that were ultimately dismissed after proper documentation was submitted. Environmental Control Board violations from 2022-2023 highlighted various safety concerns, including improper storage in utility rooms and electrical hazards.

Recent inspections have shown inconsistent results regarding rodent activity, with "Rat Activity" reported in January 2025 and multiple "Passed" inspections throughout 2024-2025, indicating ongoing pest management efforts. The building has maintained a clean bedbug record for the past several reporting periods (2019-2025), with no reported infestations. The property has undergone various permitted work between 2020-2021, though specific details of these improvements are not provided in the available data. While quarterly inspections and maintenance responses have addressed many issues, the pattern of recurring complaints suggests ongoing challenges with building systems and upkeep.
