Augrented Insights Report for 229 9th Avenue

The 6-story, 21-unit New Law Tenement at 229 9th Avenue in Chelsea, owned by David Golden and built in 1910, has experienced recurring maintenance and health-related issues in recent years. Most notably, in late 2023, the building reported simultaneous emergency complaints of unsanitary mold conditions and heavy water leakage, though no violations were ultimately issued following HPD inspections.

The property has a documented history of rodent activity, with multiple rat sightings and inspections showing either rat activity or requiring bait application as recently as 2025, though passed compliance inspections suggest some improvement in pest control efforts. Food establishment-related complaints to DOHMH have been frequent, particularly between 2019-2024, including issues with food contamination, foreign objects, and grading matters, though these were generally addressed or administratively closed. The building has faced significant regulatory scrutiny, particularly in 2018 when multiple violations were documented regarding illegal occupancy conditions, specifically involving Apartment #18 on the 6th floor, which was found to have been converted into unauthorized SRO units.

These violations included failures to maintain proper fire safety systems, egress requirements, and sprinkler systems for what was improperly operating as transient use, resulting in penalties totaling $7,250. Although these citations were eventually resolved, the building's history shows persistent challenges with maintenance compliance, as evidenced by more recent violations for failing to post proper registration information and not filing annual bedbug reports, though the building has consistently reported zero confirmed bedbug infestations in its mandatory filings since 2019. The property has also demonstrated some responsiveness to maintenance requirements, as shown by the issuance of electrical work permits in 2020-2021, though the building continues to require regular monitoring for various maintenance issues.
