Augrented Insights Report for 534 East 88th Street

534 East 88th Street is a 37-unit, 5-story Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1905 on Manhattan's Upper East Side, currently owned by Aaron Sirulnick. The building has experienced persistent pest-related issues over recent years, with multiple Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) complaints regarding unsanitary conditions and pests recorded throughout 2024 and 2025, though inspections often found no violations. Notably, there were four consecutive HPD complaints in March-April 2025 regarding pests, and similar complaints in 2024.

The building's maintenance history shows various concerns, including a period of heating and hot water issues in late 2023 and early 2024, and multiple Department of Housing Preservation and Development violations between 2022-2023 involving window guards, smoke detectors, and carbon monoxide detectors in apartment 5H. Recent inspections indicate some improvement in rodent management, with the most recent inspection in June 2025 passing, following previous inspections in 2023 also showing compliance. The building has been subject to several Local Law 188 inspections, with recent complaints in 2024 and 2025 regarding wall conditions and compliance inspections.

Historical data shows recurring elevator issues between 2018-2021, with violations related to service and safety systems. While the building's bedbug reports from 2018-2024 consistently show zero affected units, the persistent pest complaints suggest ongoing management challenges. Recent structural concerns are indicated by active complaints regarding wall conditions as of July 2025, though access issues have prevented inspection confirmation. All available data indicates the building's ownership has generally addressed official violations when identified, though access issues during inspections suggest potential communication challenges regarding unit access for official inspections.
