Augrented Insights Report for 417 East 81st Street

The 5-story, 21-unit building at 417 East 81st Street, owned by Jennifer Falu and dating back to 1950, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over recent years, with particular concerns around building systems and pest management. Most recently, in early 2025, there were complaints about heat and hot water issues, following a pattern of heating system concerns documented through 311 complaints.

The building has faced multiple pest-related challenges, with inspections revealing rodent sightings in 2024 and previous unsanitary conditions involving pests reported between 2022 and 2024, though a September 2024 compliance inspection passed. Significant building system issues were noted between 2022 and 2024, including inadequate ventilation system responses, plumbing problems, and multiple complaints about an apartment's condition in Unit 3A, involving water fixtures and safety systems. The building's history reveals persistent maintenance challenges, with a pattern of complaints regarding various systems and conditions requiring management attention.

Noteworthy incidents include multiple complaints about illegal hotel room activity (most recently in 2025), unauthorized work claims, and several electrical system violations recorded between 2018-2021, including two ECB violations in 2021 related to electrical work and continuity issues with emergency lighting. While the building's management has responded to most complaints through various city agencies, access issues have sometimes hindered inspections, particularly noted in summer 2024 when multiple HPD complaints regarding unsanitary conditions and ventilation systems could not be inspected. On a positive note, the building has consistently demonstrated effective bedbug prevention measures, with no reported infestations over the past seven consecutive reporting periods from 2018 to 2025, and rodent inspections have generally resulted in passing grades, suggesting management's ongoing efforts to address pest control challenges.
