Augrented Insights Report for 233 East 96th Street

The five-story, 22-unit building at 233 East 96th Street in East Harlem, owned by Oren Goldstein and built in 1920, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past few years. Most notably, there is an active Environmental Control Board violation from February 2023 regarding building wall maintenance issues, including vertical cracks from the 5th to 1st floors, missing mortar, and spalling bricks, with a penalty of $2,500.

There are also multiple open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2021 related to Apartment 1FE, including problems with bathroom walls, door repairs, and a pest infestation that included roaches. Recent health and safety concerns include a 2023 incident involving broken window guards that resulted in violations, and an ongoing lead dust issue reported in May 2023. The building has experienced persistent pest problems, with HPD recordings of unsanitary conditions related to pests in 2021 and more recently in August 2023.

While the building has shown some improvement in rodent control, with most recent inspections in 2025 passing, there have been repeated reports of rodent activity in 2019 and 2024. On a positive note, the building has maintained a clean bedbug record since 2019, with no reported infested units in the past five filing periods. The most recent bedbug report for the period ending October 2024 indicates zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units.
