Augrented Insights Report for 17 Gay Street

17 Gay Street is an 8-unit, 3-story building located in Manhattan's West Village, constructed in 1844 and currently owned by Steven Croman. The property has experienced recurring maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns revolving around heating and water systems, particularly a significant cluster of heat and hot water complaints in December 2022, along with plumbing issues including toilet problems during the same period. The building's infrastructure has faced multiple challenges, including rodent infestations, with recent inspections in 2025 indicating ongoing rat activity.

There have been several concerning mechanical system problems, particularly relating to the boiler and hot water systems, with multiple complaints in 2021 regarding defective equipment and unpermitted work. The building has a documented history of code violations and safety concerns, including issues with the sprinkler system, ventilation, and electrical systems in 2020, as well as various structural maintenance needs such as window repairs and stairway safety concerns. While the property had bedbug infestations reported in 2019-2020 affecting multiple units, subsequent filings from 2021 onwards show no reported infestations.

The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of emergency service requests and inspections by various agencies, including the Department of Buildings, which has issued multiple violations related to improper permit usage and maintenance requirements. As of 2023-2024, there are active violations regarding boiler maintenance and low-pressure inspection filing, and recent rodent inspections in 2025 have continued to show rat activity at the property, despite some baiting efforts. The building has undergone several inspections and compliance checks, with mixed results regarding maintenance and safety requirements, though most past violations have been marked as resolved through appropriate certification processes.
