Augrented Insights Report for 2121 2nd Avenue

The 4-story, 6-unit tenement building at 2121 2nd Avenue in East Harlem, owned by Sion Sohayegh and built in 1915, has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly related to water damage and mold. The most recent inspection, in June 2025, revealed rodent activity, with additional rat inspections in July 2025 confirming ongoing pest issues. The property has a documented history of water-related problems, with multiple emergency complaints about heavy water leaks in 2024 (notably affecting apartment 2A), and prior incidents including slow leaks and various ceiling and wall maintenance issues.

Notable violations from August 2024 include mold and water leak problems in apartment 2A, broken fire retardant materials in the first-story public hall, and an outstanding violation regarding inadequate plastered surfaces and paint maintenance. The building's maintenance history shows some improvements and ongoing concerns, with passed rodent inspections between 2018-2023, though recent inspections indicate a return of rodent issues. Other documented problems include insufficient carbon monoxide detectors in apartment 3A (2024), various plaster and paint violations, and a significant crack noted on the south elevation wall.

The building's 2024 bedbug report indicated no infestation during the reporting period. While some violations have been closed, including a 2021 mold violation in apartment 2A, others remain open as of the most recent inspections. The property underwent a Special Operations Compliance Inspection in 2021, resulting in an Oath Violation being served for building code maintenance failures.
