Augrented Insights Report for 1597 York Avenue

The building at 1597 York Avenue is a 6-story, 16-unit Old Law Tenement constructed in 1910, currently owned by Roni Abudi. The property has experienced several significant issues in recent years, most notably current active violations from March 2024 regarding illegal occupancy and unlicensed physical treatment establishment operation on the first floor, with associated penalties of $1250. Multiple housing maintenance code violations were documented in July 2023, including defective self-closing doors and missing carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 5, with an open violation noted for Apartment 6.

The building has a documented history of heat and hot water issues, with emergency complaints filed in 2020. Recent inspection records show consistent efforts to manage rodent issues, with multiple baiting inspections throughout 2023. The building's Bedbug Reporting history from 2020 through 2024 indicates no infestations were reported during this period.

There have been several Department of Buildings complaints and violations over the years, including a Work Without Permit violation in 2021 (now resolved), and concerns about plumbing work in 2019 that led to a proposed revocation of plumbing permits due to a revoked Master Plumber license. The property has undergone various permitted work between 2018-2020, including what appears to be multiple emergency work permits. While many violations have been resolved, several remain open or active, particularly those related to building safety and code compliance.
