Augrented Insights Report for 686 10th Avenue

The 5-story, 8-unit tenement building at 686 10th Avenue in Hell's Kitchen, owned by Jamel Nagi and constructed in 1910, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues over recent years. Most notably, there have been recurring heat and hot water complaints affecting the entire building, with the most recent incident recorded in December 2024, though inspections could not confirm the problem.

The building has also faced challenges with rodent infestations, as evidenced by multiple rodent inspections throughout 2023-2024 showing repeated rat activity, though recent compliance inspections failed for "Other Reasons". A cluster of violations related to unit 5F from December 2021 remains open, including issues with leaks, mice infestation, various surface damages, and defective doors. The property has a concerning pattern of maintenance code violations, particularly regarding external low-pressure inspections, with multiple active violations from 2018-2023 showing failure to file required documents.

There have been multiple housing maintenance code complaints and violations related to building systems and conditions, including mold issues in 2023, various paint/plaster problems, and historical door/window concerns dating back to 2019. Recent inspections in 2023-2024 suggest ongoing challenges with maintaining basic building systems and compliance with municipal housing requirements, including missed annual bedbug reporting requirements as evidenced by multiple violation notices from 2021-2024. The building has also had occasional issues requiring Department of Health and Mental Hygiene intervention, including a smoking violation in early 2024 and various food establishment-related complaints in 2022-2023.
