Augrented Insights Report for 225 West 16th Street

225 West 16th Street is a 5-story, 18-unit Old Law Tenement building in Chelsea, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Roberto Martinez. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, with multiple emergency complaints recorded between 2024-2025 affecting the entire building. January 2025 saw two separate building-wide heat/hot water complaints, and similar issues were reported in November 2024.

The property has also faced significant plumbing challenges, including multiple water supply issues in 2025, with some inspections unable to be completed. The building underwent a series of maintenance inspections in late 2024, resulting in several violations primarily affecting apartment 5B, including problems with radiator shut-off valves, ceiling plaster, vinyl floor tiles, and roof leaks. Other notable violations included a documented rodent infestation in August 2024, though a subsequent inspection in October 2024 passed. The building's maintenance history shows attention to pest control, with bedbug reports filed consistently since 2019 showing no observed infestations.

The most recent report from May 2025 covering the period of November 2023 to October 2024 indicated no infested units. The property has maintained compliance with rodent inspections, with all previous inspections since 2010 passing. Recent violations in late 2024 included issues with fire escape clearance (air conditioning unit encroachment) and multiple door-related problems in the first-story vestibule. While many of these violations have been certified as corrected by December 2024, including several repairs in apartment 5B, the building continues to experience maintenance challenges, particularly regarding its heating and plumbing systems, as evidenced by multiple emergency service requests and the need for follow-up inspections throughout 2025.
