Augrented Insights Report for 337 East 81st Street

337 East 81st Street is a 5-story, 14-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Brothers Holdings LLC and located in Manhattan's Upper East Side neighborhood. The property has faced ongoing maintenance challenges over the past several years, with significant issues related to heating systems, water supply, and rodent control.

Most notably, there are multiple active violations regarding the failure to file annual low-pressure inspection reports between 2018 and 2024, as well as an active violation from September 2023 concerning boiler maintenance issues that includes missing components and safety concerns. The building has a concerning history of management and maintenance issues, including multiple heating system failures (with complaints filed in 2019 and 2020), recurrent rodent infestation problems (with multiple bait applications recorded in 2020-2021 and most recently inspected in June 2025), and plumbing issues.

While some complaints have been addressed, such as the 2020 non-residential heat complaint and the 2020 water supply issue, others remain open or were not fully investigated due to lack of access during inspections. The property has also accumulated several Environmental Control Board violations, including one from 2021 regarding building facade deterioration, and another from 2023 concerning boiler safety violations, with associated penalties. While the building passed a rodent inspection in June 2025, there have been recent failures to comply with safety inspection requirements, which may indicate ongoing maintenance challenges.
