Augrented Insights Report for 520 East 72nd Street

520 East 72nd Street is an 18-story, 245-unit residential building constructed in 1964 and currently owned by Alik Fliman. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues in recent years, with four documented complaints between October and November 2023, three of which affected the entire building. Prior to this, there were multiple mold-related complaints in late 2021, with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) unable to gain access for inspection in two cases, though one inspection found no violations.

The building has also faced challenges with pest control, evidenced by a March 2020 complaint and three active bedbug violation notices between 2021-2024, including two infested units reported in late 2024. Though the building passed rodent inspections between 2010-2020, recent bedbug reporting compliance has been inconsistent, with open violations from 2021-2023 regarding annual bedbug report filings. The property has undergone several inspections and issued violations in recent years, though most complaints and violations have been addressed and closed.

Notable violations from 2021 included issues with wall paint/plaster in Apartment 2G, which required repairs, and an open violation regarding the proper placement of bedbug inspection certificates near mailboxes. Recent Department of Buildings (DOB) inspections in 2023-2025 have generally found no violations, with the most recent complaints in 2025 related to illegal plumbing work and construction enforcement, though these were resolved without violation. Historical maintenance records indicate the building has addressed various systems and maintenance issues over the years, including repairs to hoist machinery, oil leaks, and prompt responses to various violation notices. The building has maintained an active record of compliance with rodent inspections, passing all inspections from 2010 to 2020.
