Augrented Insights Report for 202 East 21st Street

202 East 21st Street is a 6-story, 27-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Gramercy and owned by Majid Kahen. The building, constructed in 1925, has experienced recurring issues with heating and hot water systems, with multiple complaints filed throughout 2024-2025, particularly in the spring of 2025. Between February 2025 and December 2024, there were numerous HPD complaints regarding heat and hot water problems, with several instances where the department was unable to gain access to units for inspection.

The building has also faced significant accessibility challenges for inspections, as evidenced by multiple "Inspector Unable To Gain Access" responses in Department of Buildings complaints from 2023-2024, including issues related to alleged illegal hotel rooms, work without permits, and a defective boiler complaint. The property has numerous housing maintenance code violations, particularly relating to door issues in common areas and apartments, self-closing door requirements, and various apartment-specific problems documented between 2023-2024. For instance, in November 2023, violations were issued for defective self-closing doors in Apartment 7A and mold issues in the bathroom.

Apartment 3D also exhibited multiple maintenance issues during 2023, including problems with window sashes, locks, bathroom tiles, and plaster surfaces. The building's infrastructure maintenance has been documented through various violations, including those related to FISP (Facade Inspection Safety Program) reporting requirements from 2019 and 2024. Despite these challenges, the building has maintained a relatively clean record regarding pest control, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past three years and only one instance in 2021, and rodent inspections have generally passed, except for one failed initial inspection in March 2023.
