Augrented Insights Report for 1987 Amsterdam Avenue

1987 Amsterdam Avenue is a 22-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement property built in 1910, currently owned by Marie Louissaint. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple emergency complaints between 2023 and 2025, including a recent emergency water leak in June 2025. The property underwent significant challenges in 2020-2021, including retaining wall collapse, boiler system violations, and multiple emergency ECB violations with substantial penalties totaling over $25,000 across various issues.

These violations primarily related to failure to maintain the building in a code-compliant manner, including problems with the boiler system, fire safety systems, and emergency egress pathways. Recent inspections and violations show some improvement, though several open violations remain as of 2023-2024, including pest infestations and various building maintenance issues. The building has maintained a generally good rodent control record, passing multiple inspections from 2016 to 2024.

Bedbug reports indicate periodic infestations, with the most recent filings showing no active infestations or successful eradications in 2023-2024, though previous years showed some cases requiring attention. Recent maintenance records from 2024 show multiple non-emergency complaints related to floor and ceiling conditions, as well as pest control issues, though inspections generally found no violations. The building has experienced typical urban housing challenges, with ongoing maintenance and systems issues representing the most significant resident concerns, particularly regarding heating systems and occasional water-related problems.
