Augrented Insights Report for 884 2nd Avenue

The 21-story, 251-unit building at 884 2nd Avenue, known as Embassy House, has experienced several recurring issues over recent years, most notably concerning heat and hot water outages that have persisted from 2024 into 2025. Buildings Department records show emergency complaints about building-wide heat/hot water issues in May 2025, November 2024, and multiple instances in October 2024. Additionally, there are unresolved complaints regarding safety concerns related to fire escapes, door issues, and ventilation systems reported in June 2025.

The building has also faced significant maintenance challenges, with multiple inspections revealing problems with unsanitary conditions including mold and pest issues in late 2024, though inspectors encountered access issues during their visits. Violation records from apartments 5P and 4C reveal a series of maintenance issues addressed between 2022-2023, including window repairs, water leak problems, and various safety equipment deficiencies such as defective smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in apartment 4C. The building's infrastructure has come under scrutiny, with multiple Department of Buildings complaints in 2024-2025 regarding illegal conversions, plumbing issues, and construction work without proper permits. Environmental Control Board violations from 2023-2024 indicate ongoing structural and maintenance concerns, including issues with building bricks, elevator systems, and compliance with previous orders.

While the building underwent several permit issuances between 2019-2022, suggesting some maintenance and repair work was performed, the recurrence of basic utility problems and safety concerns raises questions about the building's overall maintenance regime. The property has maintained a relatively clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with reports from 2019-2024 showing only one recorded incident in 2020, with all units reporting eradication in subsequent years. However, recent rodent inspections in 2023-2025 indicate ongoing challenges with rodent activity, with multiple inspections showing failed results and bait application required. The building's management appears to struggle with addressing systemic issues, as evidenced by multiple service requests requiring re-filing due to inspection access issues, and there are several currently open complaints from 2025 requiring attention.
