Augrented Insights Report for 196 Mott Street

196 Mott Street, a 6-story, 37-unit residential building located in Nolita and owned by Johnny Szeto, has experienced several notable maintenance and safety issues over the past few years. Most concerning is a current food poisoning complaint with the Department of Health from April 2025 that remains in progress. In 2023, multiple emergency complaints were filed and subsequently investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) regarding window frame issues and carbon monoxide detector problems, though no violations were ultimately issued.

The building has had water-related infrastructure concerns, as evidenced by two Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints in 2024 regarding boiler issues - one for being defective/inoperative and another for work without a permit, with an active ECB violation regarding an unregistered boiler with a $3,125 penalty. The property has demonstrated an ongoing challenge with sanitation and pest control, with multiple unsanitary condition complaints in 2023 regarding garbage/recycling storage and pest issues, though HPD found no violations upon inspection. The building's maintenance history shows some structural and safety concerns, including violations related to self-closing doors and an uncapped radiator valve in the public hall, which were certified as corrected in April 2023.

However, the building has maintained a consistent record of filing annual bedbug reports showing no affected units between 2021 and 2024. The most recent rodent inspections in 2024 and 2025 showed passed results, though there were notable instances of rat activity recorded in 2018 and 2022. The building's overall record shows a mix of resolved issues and some ongoing concerns, particularly regarding recent health and safety complaints.
