Augrented Insights Report for 158 Mott Street

158 Mott Street is a 6-story, 17-unit New Law tenement building in Little Italy, constructed in 1905 and currently owned by Kam Chin. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple emergency complaints recorded between 2019-2024, though most were resolved following tenant reports of restoration.

Recent maintenance issues have included plumbing and door problems in early 2024, both of which were promptly addressed. The building has maintained an active bedbug monitoring program since 2021, with no reported infestations in the past four reporting periods (2021-2025). Significant past incidents include unauthorized conversions of first-floor spaces into a massage establishment and recording studio in 2018-2020, which resulted in multiple Environmental Control Board violations totaling $5,000 in penalties (though records show these were resolved).

The building's fire safety compliance has been a concern, with violations noted for obstructed fire escapes due to an air conditioning unit (2020) and a commercial sign (2021). However, rodent inspections have shown consistent compliance since 2016, with the most recent inspections in 2023 and 2024 passing without issues. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing management attention to repairs, though the recurring nature of some infrastructure issues, particularly regarding heat and hot water systems, indicates these remain a challenge for the property.
