Augrented Insights Report for 249 West 76th Street

The four-story, ten-unit Old Law Tenement at 249 West 76th Street, owned by Lawrence Zombek, has experienced several notable issues over recent years, particularly concerning building systems and sanitation. Most recently, in April 2025, there were reports of unsanitary conditions related to pests, though inspections in April 2025 and earlier in 2024-found no violations.

The building suffered significant heat and hot water system problems in early 2024, with violations issued specifically against apartment 4A for inadequate hot water and for a non-self-closing door, as well as an open violation from 2020 related to required signage in the entrance area. The property has undergone various infrastructure challenges, including a plumbing issue recorded in 2020. While the building's rodent inspections have shown mixed results, with some identifying rat activity in 2018 and 2024, the most recent inspections in 2025 and 2024 passed without issues.

From 2019, there were multiple complaints regarding scaffolding and sidewalk conditions, with violations issued in September 2019 for work without proper permits and safety concerns regarding scaffolding specifications. However, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all annual reports from 2019 through 2024 showing zero affected units. Permit records indicate building maintenance activity as well, with an exterior work permit issued in June 2019.
