Augrented Insights Report for 5 West 86th Street

5 West 86th Street is a 20-story, 68-unit residential building constructed in 1937 and currently owned by Jacob Weinreb. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues in early 2025, with multiple emergency complaints from both individual apartments and the entire building between January and February 2025. These complaints, while receiving HPD attention, often noted difficulties in gaining apartment access for proper inspection. The building has a documented history of various maintenance issues, including a notable period of rodent activity in 2024 with follow-up bait application, and multiple violations related to door self-closing mechanisms in 2023-2024.

Significant building events include elevator-related complaints in 2020-2022, construction safety violations in 2021, and facade maintenance issues with active violations for 2018-2019 related to FISP (Facade Inspection and Safety Program) reporting requirements. The building's maintenance history shows recurring issues with water leaks, ceiling problems, and window maintenance needs around 2021-2023, particularly in apartments 8A and 19B. Recent inspections have revealed multiple open violations as of 2023 regarding defective plaster surfaces, window issues, and door problems. The property has undergone several environmental control board violations since 2018, primarily related to facade maintenance and elevator operation, though these have generally been resolved.

The building appears to be following proper procedure for bedbug reporting, with only one infested unit reported in the most recent filing for 2023-2024, while previous years showed no infestation. The building's permit history from 2019-2022 shows routine maintenance work being conducted, including facade and elevator-related permits. Recent inspections have revealed ongoing maintenance needs, particularly regarding building entrances and interior finishes. While many historical complaints have been resolved, there appears to be a pattern of recurring issues related to building systems and maintenance requirements that suggest ongoing challenges with building upkeep and tenant comfort, particularly concerning heat and water systems.
