Augrented Insights Report for 49 Prince Street

49 Prince Street is a 6-story, 27-unit New Law Tenement building located in Nolita, built in 1915 and currently owned by Michael Besen. As of June 2025, the building has several open HPD complaints requiring attention, including unresolved issues with the ventilation system, electrical wiring, and unsanitary garbage/recycling storage. The building has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues, with multiple complaints in 2024 and 2025, though some were resolved after inspections confirmed restoration of service.

The property has a history of maintenance and safety concerns, with significant violations recorded in recent years. In late 2023, several C-class violations were issued regarding building security, including issues with self-closing doors and an illegal electromagnetic lockset at the building entrance. Notable environmental concerns include active rat activity as recently as August 2024, though a subsequent compliance inspection passed.

The building has maintained a consistent record of no bedbug infestations reported since at least 2020, and quarterly bedbug inspections have consistently shown no infested units. Three outstanding ECB violations remain active as of 2024, with penalties totaling $4,950 related to electrical work and safety compliance. Additionally, there were multiple tenant safety inspections conducted in 2023-2024, with Oath Violations served on various dates. The building's recent service history suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding building systems and security features, while also showing some improvements in general habitability conditions.
