Augrented Insights Report for 268 West 12th Street

268 West 12th Street is a 5-story, 18-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1887 and currently owned by Michael Pistilli. The property has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent years, particularly in early 2025, with ongoing complaints about unsanitary conditions (mold) and paint/plaster problems. Between January and April 2025, there were multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water issues throughout the building, though these were closed with varying resolutions.

The building has also faced structural concerns, with inspections in January and December 2025 noting problems with the parapet walls and chimneys leaning toward the adjacent property, resulting in an active Environmental Control Board violation with a penalty of $1,280. The building's maintenance history shows recurring issues with basic services, including a pattern of heating system failures, water leaks, and unsanitary conditions. Multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations were identified in 2024-2025, including problems with self-closing doors, smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and plumbing fixtures.

The building underwent several inspections for rodent activity in 2024-2025, with evidence of rat activity noted in June 2024 and October 2024, though recent inspections in March 2025 indicated compliance. Additionally, there have been concerns about building security and emergency systems, including a violation regarding a locked door to the heating system in 2024. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in recent years.
