Augrented Insights Report for 153 East 33rd Street

153 East 33rd Street is a 4-story, 3-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Kips Bay, owned by Josephine Battaglia and constructed in 1910. The building has experienced consistent issues with regulatory compliance in recent years, particularly regarding bedbug reporting requirements, with an open violation as of April 2024, despite previous violations from 2021-2023 being closed.

Environmental Control Board violations from 2018-2019 indicate serious safety concerns when the building was allegedly operating illegally, including lack of proper fire safety systems and means of egress for transient use, though these were resolved with penalties totaling $100,625. The building has an active pattern of violations related to external low-pressure inspections, with five separate violations issued between 2018-2023 showing non-compliance with required annual inspections. Additional historical issues include complaints of illegal hotel rooms (2019-2020), occupancy violations (2018), and multiple safety-related complaints in 2021 including concerns about building stability and falling debris, though no violations were warranted upon inspection.

All rodent inspections since 2009 have passed, with the most recent inspection in March 2025 showing no issues. While the building's bedbug report for 2021-2022 showed no infestations, the open violation regarding bedbug reporting suggests ongoing oversight in this area. The property has maintained compliance with general rodent control requirements, passing inspections consistently over the years.
