Augrented Insights Report for 427 West 51st Street

427 West 51st Street is a 6-story, 80-unit residential building constructed in 1940, currently owned by Ezriel Weinberger and classified as a New Law Tenement. The building has experienced persistent heating and hot water problems throughout 2024-2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), particularly notable in March 2025 when two building-wide complaints were recorded.

Historically, the building has had significant plumbing and heating infrastructure issues, as evidenced by numerous service requests and complaints during 2024-2025. Recent maintenance concerns include open violations in apartment 1I from July 2024 for mouse infestation and defective plastered surfaces, as well as multiple fire escape-related violations identified in June 2024 regarding defective drop ladders, though these were subsequently closed. The building has a documented history of illegal hotel room operation investigations, with multiple complaints between 2019-2020 suggesting unauthorized transient occupancy, though most inspections resulted in no violations being found.

In late 2018, the property faced multiple Environmental Control Board violations related to safety systems for transient use, including issues with fire alarms, sprinklers, and egress requirements, resulting in substantial fines, though these were ultimately resolved. More recent concerns include elevator service interruption complaints in May 2024 and building infrastructure maintenance issues. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations in recent years, with no units reporting infestation between 2019-2024, though rodent inspections have shown mixed results with the most recent inspection in December 2024 passing.
