Augrented Insights Report for 831 8th Avenue

The 25-story, 293-unit residential building at 831 8th Avenue, constructed in 1997 and currently owned by Wayne Ngai, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years, particularly relating to heat and hot water systems. Between December 2023 and April 2025, there were five separate incidents of heat and hot water failures, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, though most were resolved quickly within a few days of reporting.

More recently, in April 2025, the building has open complaints regarding door/window issues, lighting problems, and cabinet concerns, with HPD noting these conditions are still pending inspection and resolution. The building has a history of health and safety inspections, including three tenant safety inspections in 2024 that resulted in no violations. Environmental inspections in 2024 revealed temporary lighting issues in a commercial space on the first floor, for which fines were imposed.

Previous years show ongoing management challenges, including multiple housing maintenance code violations in 2019 related to safety signage requirements, though these are now marked as Open. The building's management has demonstrated responsiveness to most complaints, as evidenced by the swift resolutions of the majority of heat/hot water issues when they were reported. The building's bedbug and rodent management records show minimal ongoing issues, with the most recent bedbug report from 2023 showing no active infestations, though there have been instances of rat activity noted in 2024 inspections.
