Augrented Insights Report for 2844 8th Avenue

2844 8th Avenue is a 6-story, 27-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1920, currently owned by Northern Man Equities. The building has experienced significant recurring issues in recent years, most notably regarding heat and hot water systems, with multiple complaints recorded between December 2024 and April 2025 indicating either building-wide or apartment-specific problems. In addition, there is an ongoing rodent control situation, with inspections and bait applications continuing into 2025 following multiple instances of rat activity being documented between 2024 and 2025.

The building's infrastructure has also shown persistent maintenance challenges, particularly with the elevator system, as evidenced by multiple complaints about lack of alternate service between 2022 and 2024, and an active violation from December 2024 with associated penalties. Compliance issues with safety systems have been documented, including violations regarding window guards and mold conditions in apartment 5C, though these violations show as having been certified for correction in early 2025. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases across multiple annual filings since 2019. Recent inspections and service requests indicate ongoing concerns with both building systems and maintenance conditions.

The property has faced multiple emergency heat and hot water complaints, though many were resolved through prompt response or indicated corrections. The Department of Buildings has documented various violations over the years, including several related to elevator service and building maintenance requirements. While some historical violations have been dismissed, others remain active, including a 2024 violation related to elevator emergency communication systems with a penalty of $3,125. The building's management has been responsive to many service requests, though access issues have occasionally complicated inspections, particularly regarding heat and hot water complaints.
