Augrented Insights Report for 2162 8th Avenue

2162 8th Avenue is a 5-story, 66-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Michael Aryeh. The property has experienced recurring health and maintenance issues in recent months, with eight active Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) complaints as of June 2025 related to food establishment violations, including concerns about rodents, plumbing, food safety, and toilet facilities. The building has also faced significant plumbing and heating system challenges, evidenced by multiple recent emergency complaints regarding heat/hot water systems across both entire buildings and individual apartments between January and April 2025.

Of particular note is an active Environmental Control Board (ECB) violation from May 2024 regarding an obstructed fire escape ladder at the front entrance, which carries a $1,250 penalty, and another active violation from April 2023 concerning an unpermitted illuminated sign. The building's recent history indicates persistent rodent activity, with multiple inspections in 2024 and 2025 confirming rat presence, although bait has been applied during several of these inspections. Multiple housing maintenance code violations were issued in December 2024 regarding various safety and maintenance issues, including door latch problems and a water leak in the first-story public hall.

The property has a documented pattern of heat and hot water problems, as evidenced by numerous emergency complaints throughout 2025. The building's systems and safety features have faced scrutiny, with several recent inspections noting problems with self-closing doors at fire-rated locations throughout the building. While no bedbug infestations have been reported in recent years, the ongoing rodent issues and multiple active violations suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance and system reliability. The property's inspection history shows consistent efforts to address violations, though some problems appear to persist despite repairs and remediation attempts.
