Augrented Insights Report for 125 West 16th Street

The 54-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement building at 125 West 16th Street in Chelsea, built in 1918 and currently owned by Aak Acquisitions LLC, has experienced recurring maintenance issues and building code violations over recent years. Most notably, in 2025, there were multiple complaints regarding building-wide heat and hot water issues, with related emergency Housing Maintenance Code complaints and violations still being processed.

The building has a significant cluster of plumbing-related issues, including multiple complaints regarding sink, bathtub, and toilet problems between 2022 and 2025, with emergency complaints documented in both June 2024 and October 2023. The most recent inspection in October 2023 revealed several open violations in apartment 125, including problems with the sink, toilet, and floors, as well as electrical wiring concerns. In early 2025, the building faced multiple Department of Buildings complaints related to unlicensed work, work contrary to a stop work order, and tenant safety inspections, with violations served.

Historical records show the property has maintained a consistent pattern of having various violations and complaints, including safety violations related to smoke detectors in 2022, pest infestations (with violations issued) in 2022, and issues with mold. The building has also had multiple Environmental Control Board violations between 2019-2021 related to tenant safety and construction practices, including a 2021 violation for altered/changed building occupancy without valid certification. While recent bedbug reports from 2024 show no infestations, the building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic services and infrastructure, particularly regarding plumbing and heating systems.
