Augrented Insights Report for 98 Thompson Street

The 38-unit, 6-story building at 98 Thompson Street in SoHo, owned by Kenneth Rosenblum and constructed in 1904, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over recent years. Most notably, there has been a recurring rodent problem, with multiple inspections in 2024 showing rat activity, though the most recent inspections in 2025 passed.

The building has a concerning history of sanitary violations, particularly regarding garbage/recycling storage in late 2023 that resulted in violations, and multiple unsuccessful HPD inspections in 2024 concerning radiator plumbing issues that require re-inspection. Between 2020 and 2023, there were multiple complaints regarding gas range supply issues in several apartments (11, 20, and 23), security system problems with electromagnetic door fastenings, and various door/window maintenance issues.

The building underwent significant scrutiny in 2024, with multiple Tenant Safety Inspections showing both compliance and violations, including one for "Oath Violation Served." There were also two Environmental Control Board violations in mid-2024 related to construction work that resulted in penalties totaling $7,500 due to non-compliance with Tenant Protection Plan requirements, particularly regarding construction dust in hallways and lack of protective measures. Recent inspections have cleared the building of bedbug infestations, with zero reported cases in the past three reporting periods from 2020 to 2024. The property has shown some improvements, with recent rodent inspections passing, though maintenance access issues during inspections and recurring plumbing concerns suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance and resident access for inspections.
