Augrented Insights Report for 78 Bank Street

78 Bank Street is a 6-story, 24-unit residential building located in Manhattan's West Village, built in 1908 and currently owned by Joshua Benaim. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns involving rodent activity and door safety. Recent inspections in 2025 showed rat activity was present, which follows a history of rodent-related complaints including violations found in 2022.

The building has also had recurring issues with door safety, including multiple violations in 2023 related to self-closing doors, particularly with a defective fire door leading to the west yard and a defective bulkhead door leading to the roof. Apartment 5 has been the focus of various maintenance concerns, including issues with window frames, shower/bathtub, and carbon monoxide detectors, with multiple violations documented between 2022 and 2023. The property has undergone several inspections and treatments for rodent control, with bait applications recorded throughout 2023 and some compliance passes, though recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 noted ongoing rodent activity.

Building infrastructure has faced challenges, as evidenced by multiple emergency and non-emergency housing maintenance code complaints in 2022, including issues with windows, plumbing, and various other building systems. The building has maintained a clean bedbug report history from 2019 through 2024, showing no documented infestations. Notably, there were concerns about exterior maintenance in previous years, with ECB violations documented in 2020 regarding building walls and appurtenances, though these appear to have been resolved. The property management has generally responded to violations and complaints, with many being closed through remediation or correction, though some issues, such as the door safety violations in 2023, required multiple inspections before resolution.
