Augrented Insights Report for 152 7th Avenue

The four-story, 11-unit old law tenement building at 152 7th Avenue in Chelsea, owned by John Usdan, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past three years, with the most significant cluster of problems occurring in 2024. During this time, there were multiple heat and hot water complaints (both building-wide and apartment-specific), with at least six separate incidents reported between December 2023 and December 2024. The building has also faced substantial plumbing challenges, particularly affecting apartment 3R, which has open violations as of August 2024 related to inadequate hot water supply, excessive water temperature, and waste line obstructions in both the bathroom and kitchen fixtures.

Other notable issues include a pest-related complaint from November 2024 that could not be inspected, and a sanitation inspection by DOHMH in September 2024. The property has an extensive history of violations and complaints, particularly regarding safety systems and occupancy issues. In 2020, there were multiple violations issued concerning illegal occupancy and fire safety systems, including problems with the sprinkler system, means of egress, and fire alarm systems for what appeared to be unauthorized transient use of apartment 2F.

More recent inspections in 2025 and 2024 have passed rodent control inspections, though previous inspections from 2022 showed rat activity. The building has experienced persistent maintenance challenges, as evidenced by the need for multiple service requests and inspections related to basic services like heat and hot water, which are particularly critical for resident comfort and safety. While some violations from 2023 were resolved through dismissal or payments, several remain open as of the most recent inspection dates, indicating ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges.
