Augrented Insights Report for 221 East 23rd Street

221 East 23rd Street is a 6-story, 18-unit New Law Tenement residential building constructed in 1950, currently owned by Nia Shields. The building has experienced persistent maintenance issues, with multiple 311 service requests in 2025 alone, including open complaints regarding window frames and plumbing issues. There have been recurring problems with pests, mold, and safety equipment, particularly during 2024-2025, with multiple unsanitary condition complaints and failed rodent inspections in August 2024.

The building has documented difficulty with access for inspections, as evidenced by multiple HPD inspection attempts where the inspector was unable to gain access. The property's violation history shows a pattern of maintenance issues, including a concerning series of Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations in 2019 that documented problems with building maintenance and violations related to exposed wiring and ceiling disrepair in the cellar area. Previous violations from 2020-2021 indicate various issues with gas supply, door functionality, and electrical safety, though many of these past violations have been marked as resolved. The building's recent bedbug reporting shows minimal infestation history, with only one recorded case in 2022-2023, while rodent control efforts have been documented through multiple baiting inspections between 2018-2025.

The most recent rodent inspection in April 2025 showed compliance, suggesting some improvement in pest management, though a prior August 2024 compliance inspection failed for unspecified reasons. The building's recent history indicates ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding tenant access for inspections and addressing basic infrastructure issues. While some historical violations from previous years have been resolved, the frequency of recent complaints and open service requests suggests persistent building maintenance challenges. The property has maintained regular compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing active management of this particular issue area.
