Augrented Insights Report for 26 Vandam Street

26 Vandam Street is a 5-story, 21-unit old law tenement building located in SoHo, built in 1900 and currently owned by Bahram Hakakian. The building has experienced recurring rodent issues, with the most recent inspections in 2025 showing rat activity in both June and July, following earlier sightings in February.

These rodent problems appear to be an ongoing concern, with multiple complaints recorded through 311 services, including two rat sightings in June 2025 and an open unsanitary condition complaint regarding garbage/recycling storage from February 2025. The building's maintenance history shows several significant violations and maintenance needs, including a 2023 Environmental Control Board violation related to damaged decorative molding at the main entrance, and past violations concerning fire escape passageways and metal stairs that were certified as corrected in 2018.

The property has maintained a clean bedbug record over the past several years, with consistent reporting showing zero infested or re-infested units from 2019 through 2024. Two building-related complaints were filed through the Department of Buildings, one in 2022 regarding an illegal conversion and another in 2023 related to enforcement work, though records indicate limited resolution details for these issues. Inspection records show regular rodent inspections between 2018 and 2025, with the most recent ones indicating ongoing rodent activity, while earlier inspections during this period typically showed no rat activity.
