Augrented Insights Report for 1978 2nd Avenue

The 16-unit, 5-story building at 1978 2nd Avenue in East Harlem, owned by Nafeesa Farid and constructed in 1910, has experienced persistent heating system issues over the past few years. The most recent complaints in 2025, along with multiple incidents throughout 2022-2023, indicate recurring problems with heat and hot water availability affecting either the entire building or individual apartments. While most of these complaints were ultimately resolved according to HPD records, the frequency of these heating-related issues raises concern about system reliability.

The building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing zero infestation cases across multiple reporting periods from 2020 through 2025. The property has also undergone regular rodent inspections, with the most recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 passing successfully, though there were multiple bait applications in early 2024. The building has been subject to several housing maintenance code violations, including safety concerns regarding vestibule door functionality in late 2022 (Class C violations), and an open violation from 2020 related to a window air conditioner obstructing fire escape egress (Class C violation).

A structural stability-related complaint was filed in December 2020, but no violations were found upon inspection. The most recent housing maintenance code inspection in April 2024 resulted in a violation for failure to file the annual bedbug report, though previous inspections in 2022 and 2023 had similar violations that were ultimately closed. While the building's heating system issues continue to require attention, other maintenance and pest control matters appear to be appropriately managed, with regular reporting and inspection compliance being maintained.
