Augrented Insights Report for 160 East 55th Street

160 East 55th Street is an 8-story, 44-unit residential building located in Midtown, constructed in 1955 and currently owned by Jane Goldman. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over recent years, with the most recent being a rodent complaint in June 2025, which passed inspection with no violations. Other notable recent incidents include a fire escape safety complaint in December 2024-2025 that HPD was unable to inspect, and two blocked egress complaints in late 2024, one of which resulted in an OATH violation being served.

The building has faced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, particularly in January 2021 and December 2022, though these were reportedly resolved. There were multiple plumbing complaints in January 2021, including water supply issues, and in February 2021, an unsanitary condition complaint regarding pests was filed, which HPD could not inspect. The property has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections, with recent inspections in 2025 and 2024 showing no violations. The building's maintenance history reveals several Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2018-2022, including issues with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, fire escape safety, and various apartment repairs, particularly in apartment 5F.

There are also active DOB violations concerning the failure to submit the required FISP Cycle 9A technical report and failure to certify correction of immediately hazardous violations from 2019. Despite these issues, the building has demonstrated compliance in recent bedbug reporting periods, showing zero reported infestation cases from 2019-2024. The property has a history of promptly addressing many complaints, though there have been instances where inspectors were unable to gain access for verification. The building's permit history from 2018 shows several plumbing and electrical permits, indicating ongoing maintenance and improvement work.
