Augrented Insights Report for 509 9th Avenue

The 5-story, 8-unit building at 509 9th Avenue in Hell's Kitchen, owned by John Esposito and constructed in 1920, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in September 2024, multiple violations were documented across various categories, including unsanitary conditions (pests and mold), flooring/stairs problems, wall and ceiling paint issues, and general maintenance concerns.

These violations primarily affected the 2nd-floor unit (2S), where inspections revealed infestations of roaches and mice, defective smoke detector issues, and various repair needs including problems with the cabinet and flooring. The building has maintained an active history of monitoring and remediation for pests, with all recent inspections (including a rodent inspection in October 2024) passing successfully. The property has shown consistent attention to compliance matters, with bedbug reports from 2020-2025 showing no infestations.

Historical records indicate various other maintenance issues, including a significant emergency complaint regarding heat/hot water in 2019 and plumbing concerns in 2020, though these appear to have been resolved. Of particular note is a zoning violation from 2019 related to an illegally extended storefront storm-enclosure, which has since been resolved. The building's response to maintenance complaints has generally followed proper channels through HPD, with many issues being addressed within reasonable timeframes, though multiple violations were documented simultaneously in recent inspections.
