Augrented Insights Report for 127 East 28th Street

127 East 28th Street is a 5-story, 5-unit residential building located in Midtown and owned by Zhi Pan. Built in 1910, this HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A building has experienced notable issues over recent years. The most concerning recent events occurred in June 2025, with multiple violations issued by HPD including problems with windows, ceilings, walls, doors, and flooring.

These followed similar issues in August 2024, including more window and door problems, and violations related to a malfunctioning bell/buzzer/intercom system. The building has an active violation status regarding the failure to file External Low Pressure Inspections for both 2022 and 2023, suggesting ongoing maintenance oversight. Prior to 2025, significant concerns were documented in 2024 relating to Apartment 4R, including issues with the ceiling, windows, flooring, and various safety equipment such as smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors. The building's history also shows infrastructure concerns, including building shaking/vibration complaints in 2020 and 2024, with one resulting in an Oath Violation.

Between 2019-2020, there were multiple violations regarding illegal unit conversions, with the 5th floor allegedly converted to 6 SRO units, though these violations were eventually resolved. The building's environmental record indicates rat activity was present in 2023, though it passed the July 2024 inspection. Multiple ECB violations from 2020 required payment of penalties totaling over $40,000, primarily related to building maintenance and safety systems, though many were resolved. The property has also faced issues with plumbing systems, structure stability, and various housing maintenance code violations, particularly affecting Apartment 4R.
