Augrented Insights Report for 1321 1st Avenue

The four-story, seven-unit Old Law Tenement building at 1321 1st Avenue, owned by Robert Jaffe and constructed in 1915, has experienced recurring pest issues, particularly with roaches, most recently documented in an open 2024 complaint through the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). The building has a notable history of sanitary concerns, with multiple 311 complaints and HPD inspections revealing pest problems in 2023 and 2024, as well as interior maintenance issues such as water leaks, and defective plastered surfaces in apartment 2B that resulted in several violations in late 2024.

While there have been food poisoning incidents reported to the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) in 2019 and December 2023, these were determined to be isolated incidents. The building has undergone various maintenance inspections and repairs over the years, with documented work addressing heat and hot water issues in 2022, flooring repairs in 2021, and door/window concerns in 2021. A significant inspection of the building's mechanical systems in 2020 revealed multiple violations related to the steam boiler system, though these were resolved with a penalty of $625.

Notably, the building has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections from 2011 through 2019, with only one instance of rat activity in June 2016. Bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024 show no infestations. The property also experienced two water drainage-related complaints in 2018 and 2019, though neither resulted in violations.
