Augrented Insights Report for 5 Charles Street

5 Charles Street is a 4-story, 23-unit Old Law Tenement building located in the West Village, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Blake Morgan. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over the past few years, with the most notable cluster of problems occurring in late 2021 when multiple units, including 4F, reported inadequate heating, hot water, and other facilities issues.

These violations, along with several open violations related to fire safety and emergency procedures, particularly regarding gas leak and smoke detector notifications, highlight ongoing concerns with building systems and safety compliance. The building has also faced documented rodent issues, with multiple inspections showing rat activity between 2022 and 2025, though the most recent April 2025 compliance inspection passed. The property has a history of regulatory challenges, including environmental control board violations from 2018-2019 related to building maintenance and external fire escape obstructions, with active penalties still showing in 2023.

Bedbug reporting requirements have been consistently met from 2022-2024, with no reported infestations during this period. The building's violation history includes two illegal conversion complaints (2018 and 2021) that resulted in Oath violations being served. While recent rodent control efforts have shown some improvement, with inspections in early 2025 passing, the building continues to have several active violations in the Department of Buildings system as of 2023, including non-compliance with inspection requirements.
