Augrented Insights Report for 2240 2nd Avenue

2240 Second Avenue is a four-story, six-unit old law tenement building located in East Harlem, built in 1900 and currently owned by Nasir Sasouness. The building has experienced significant maintenance and safety issues over the past two years, with the most pressing concerns emerging in 2023-2024. There are currently open violations for Units 3W and 4W related to mold (in bathrooms), pest infestations (including roaches in 3W and mice in 4W), and issues with window guards, self-closing doors, and peeling paint.

The building's systems have shown persistent problems, particularly with heat/hot water and cooking gas, as evidenced by multiple 311 complaints in late 2023. Of particular concern is a December 2024 inspection revealing facade issues, with missing sections and step cracks under window sills, leading to a $2,500 violation penalty. Recent inspections have shown ongoing rodent issues, with several compliance failures in 2023-2024, though the most recent inspection in March 2025 passed.

The building has a history of ventilation and exhaust-related violations, with multiple citations between 2022-2024, including illegal/ improper installations. Two major structural monitoring and debris-related complaints were recorded in December 2024. The property also has outstanding Environmental Control Board violations related to a kitchen fire suppression system installation and fire escape maintenance, with penalties totaling $4,750 in 2022. While some historical issues have been resolved, including certain fire escape and maintenance violations, the building continues to face challenges with basic systems, pest control, and structural maintenance, as evidenced by the numerous open violations and recent inspection history.
