Augrented Insights Report for 1636 Lexington Avenue

1636 Lexington Avenue is a 6-story, 22-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1915, currently owned by Meir Bouskila. The building has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most recent being an unresolved HPD complaint regarding an electric/gas range from September 2024, where an HPD inspector was unable to gain access for inspection. The building has a documented history of plumbing and structural issues, particularly affecting apartment 4, which has been the focus of multiple violations and service requests between 2021 and 2023.

These include problems with bathroom fixtures, mold, and problems with smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in 2023-2024. A notable cluster of violations occurred in 2021, including issues with paint/plaster on walls and ceilings, flooring, and plumbing, though some of these were resolved without penalties. The building has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections, with all inspections from 2019 through 2025 showing compliance. Bedbug reports from 2021 to 2024 show no documented infestations.

The property has experienced periodic issues with smoking violations, with two documented instances in 2023. There were also some regulatory compliance issues in the past, including failure to file required reports regarding exterior walls (FISP Cycle 8C) in 2019-2020, though the penalty was ultimately dismissed. Recent environmental control board violations indicate proper reporting and compliance procedures have been maintained, with no recent penalties or balances due. The building's maintenance history shows a mix of resolved and ongoing issues, with particular attention needed to monitor the status of unresolved service requests and recurring maintenance patterns.
