Augrented Insights Report for 21 East 115th Street

21 East 115th Street is a 5-story, 10-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1930 and currently owned by Doug James. The building has experienced significant structural issues in recent years, with multiple building violations related to hazardous conditions, including deteriorated masonry, cracked stones, and spalling bricks. Most notably, in October 2024, emergency repairs were required for issues involving precast coping stones at the parapet wall, which were subsequently addressed by February 2025.

The building has also undergone temporary shoring installation from ground floor to roof in mid-2022, requiring monthly structural stability reports that continued through 2023. The property has had recurring maintenance violations, particularly in 2023-2024, with multiple failed inspection notices regarding building upkeep. There is also a pattern of permit violations related to construction equipment and temporary structures, resulting in several penalties totaling over $8,000 in 2023-2024.

However, on a positive note, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all recent annual reports (2021-2024) showing zero infested units. The most recent rodent inspections from early 2025 show the building passing initial inspections, though there was evidence of rat activity in previous inspections throughout 2023-2024, with bait application noted on multiple occasions. The building's environmental control board violations and department of buildings violations from 2022-2024 have been mostly resolved, with only one active violation from April 2023 related to external low pressure inspection.
