Augrented Insights Report for 259 Bleecker Street

259 Bleecker Street is a 6-story, 31-unit residential building located in Manhattan's West Village, owned by Fernando Alba and constructed in 1904 as a New Law Tenement. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with the most recent complaint filed in February 2025 remaining unresolved due to lack of access for inspection. Between 2021-2022, there were multiple documented incidents of heat and hot water problems affecting the entire building, though most were resolved upon inspection.

A significant water leak incident occurred in April 2023, resulting in a heavy flow situation, but no violations were issued following the inspection. The building has faced several maintenance and safety concerns over the past years, including violations related to fire safety systems in 2019 when an apartment was found to be operating in non-compliance as a transient use space, though these violations were subsequently resolved. Additional violations from 2021 included issues with a fire escape, entrance doors requiring self-closing mechanisms, and a need for proper identification of heating system access personnel.

Notably, all bedbug reports from 2019-2024 show zero infestation cases, and recent rodent inspections (2016-2025) have consistently passed. The building underwent some permitted work in 2021, with two permits issued for alterations. Recent complaints and violations have generally been resolved through proper channels, though the continuing heat/hot water issues suggest an ongoing operational challenge.
