Augrented Insights Report for 421 East 72nd Street

The 5-story, 17-unit building at 421 East 72nd Street, owned by Easter Home LLC and built in 1910, has experienced recurring pest and sanitation issues in recent years. Most notably, in 2024, there was a series of complaints and violations related to pest infestations, specifically in Apartment 2B, which was cited for both mouse and roach infestations (class C violations) during a March 2024 inspection.

The building has shown a persistent rodent problem, with multiple inspections between December 2023 and April 2024 confirming rat activity, despite previous inspections from 2017 to 2020 showing compliance. The building has also faced infrastructure and safety concerns, including a violation in Apartment 3B for missing carbon monoxide detectors and non-functional smoke detectors (both class B violations) in March 2024, though these were subsequently certified as corrected by April 2024.

Additional complaints in early 2024 involved garbage/recycling storage issues, and window frame problems in January 2024, though these complaints were marked as "not able to gain access to inspect." The building's management has consistently filed bedbug reports from 2019 through 2024 showing zero infested or eradicated units. While the property has had multiple 311 service requests and HPD complaints throughout 2024, most have either been closed without violations or marked as requiring re-filing for uninspected conditions. A building-wide inspection in 2024 confirmed most units passed muster, though some issues remain pending resolution, particularly regarding pest control in Apartment 2B.
