Augrented Insights Report for 1918 1st Avenue

1918 First Avenue is a 14-story, 203-unit residential building in East Harlem, constructed in 1962 and currently owned by Sydelle Knepper. The building has experienced several maintenance and quality of life issues in recent years, with particular concerns regarding pest control and maintenance. Most notably, there have been consistent reports of bedbug infestations, with the most recent HPD filing (2024-2025) showing 5 infested units, though all were reported as eradicated.

The building has also faced challenges with rodent activity, as indicated by several inspections in 2023 and 2024 showing mixed results, though a July 2025 inspection passed with no issues. Multiple building systems have required attention, including heating (September 2024 complaint), plumbing (radiator issues in October 2024), and various door/window problems, some of which prompted emergency responses. The property has a history of sanitary condition violations, with complaints about mold, sewage, and pest infestations recorded between 2021 and 2024.

In 2024, two significant violations were identified regarding the 8th-floor public hall's ceiling, requiring repair of both its paint and fire-retardant materials. A comprehensive inspection in July 2024 documented issues with windows/doors, heat/hot water, and various unsanitary conditions, though many complaints were ultimately closed without violations being found. The building has maintained active compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2019, though multiple rounds of infestation have been documented. Notably, during a 2018 construction period, several safety violations were recorded related to scaffolding and debris management, with penalties issued but subsequently resolved.
