Augrented Insights Report for 211 East 31st Street

The 10-unit, 3-story, 1915 brownstone at 211 East 31st Street in Kips Bay, currently owned by Drew Popkin, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over recent years, with particular attention needed to the heating and water systems. Between 2020-2021, multiple complaints were filed regarding heat and hot water problems, with one building-wide incident in August 2021, though most were resolved promptly. The building faced significant challenges with water-related issues in 2020-2021, including leaks and unsanitary conditions in garbage storage areas, with corresponding HPD violations.

More concerning was a series of safety-related emergency complaints in 2022 involving carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and door issues, all of which were eventually closed. Recent maintenance record shows improved conditions, with the most recent rodent inspection in February 2025 passing successfully. Bedbug reports for the past three years (2022-2025) show no infestations.

The building underwent construction work in 2023-2024 that generated multiple violations, including improper construction site maintenance and safety concerns about openings and guardrails, though these were mostly resolved. The property has maintained regular bedbug reporting compliance since 2022, while the 2023 inspection for external low-pressure systems revealed a violation that was dismissed. The most recent Department of Buildings inspection in March 2023 noted no major violations, and the building has filed annual bedbug reports showing consistently zero infested units since 2022.
