Augrented Insights Report for 231 8th Avenue

231 8th Avenue is a 6-story, Class B building constructed in 1912 and currently owned by Todd Cohen. The building has experienced recurring food establishment inspection issues, with multiple Health Department complaints between 2020 and 2024 related to pet/animal presence and permit/license violations. Notably, there was one food poisoning complaint in 2022 that was referred to New York State Agriculture and Markets.

The property has maintained an active bedbug reporting record from 2021 to present, consistently showing zero infested units or eradicated units. Between 2019 and 2025, several significant Department of Building (DOB) complaints and violations have been recorded. There were multiple complaints regarding scaffold conditions and sidewalk shed issues in late 2020 through 2021, though inspections found no violations at the time. The building experienced rat activity in 2021, but all subsequent rodent inspections from 2022 through 2025 have passed successfully.

The property has consistently filed annual bedbug reports showing no infestations. Multiple Health Department inspections required follow-up actions regarding food establishments, and there have been several environmental control board violations related to building maintenance and safety. Between 2019-2020, the building faced issues with exterior maintenance, including falling debris and construction violations that resulted in penalties, though these were generally resolved through corrected work. The most recent inspections and reports from 2024-2025 show improved conditions, with no recent active violations or reported infestations.
