Augrented Insights Report for 9 West 31st Street

The 41-story residential building at 9 West 31st Street in Midtown, owned by Jack Halpern and completed in 2004, has experienced several maintenance and compliance issues over recent years. The property, which contains 283 units, has shown recurring problems with mold and ventilation systems, particularly evident from multiple HPD and DOHMH complaints between 2022-2023. The most recent incidents in March 2023 involved paint/plaster issues and wall mold problems, though inspections resulted in no violations being issued.

Apartment 26B on the 26th floor was specifically cited in August 2022 for multiple violations including mold, pest infestations (roaches and mice), and painting issues, with some resolved by May 2023. The building has undergone various inspections and faced several Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints regarding potential illegal hotel room usage, with the most recent inspections in 2023 and 2024 showing either no violations or inspector access issues. Recent violations from late 2024 regarding energy efficiency documentation requirements and benchmarking reports were dismissed upon review.

However, the building's bedbug reporting history from 2019 through 2024 consistently indicates zero infested or eradicated units, suggesting effective pest management for bedbugs. Rodent inspections conducted between 2010 and 2023 have all passed, indicating generally good rodent control. Recent maintenance issues have shown a trend toward timely resolution, with the most recent violations related to door repairs and annual bedbug reporting being addressed appropriately.
