Augrented Insights Report for 731 East 156th Street

731 East 156th Street is a 6-story, 25-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1906, currently owned by 731 Property LLC. The building has experienced recurring pest issues, with multiple complaints about vermin and rodent activity reported throughout 2025-2024, including recent unsanitary conditions involving pests in June 2025, despite ongoing rodent baiting efforts. Safety concerns have also been documented, particularly regarding window guard maintenance, as evidenced by a June 2025 complaint about broken/missing window guards.

The building has faced various maintenance challenges, with significant violations documented in 2024 including water damage, mold, and issues with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. A notable cluster of violations was identified in Apartment 1D during an August 2024 inspection, including problems with plaster surfaces, water leaks, and bathroom maintenance. The property has received multiple Department of Buildings violations in recent years, including a Partial Vacate Order in May 2024 due to hazardous conditions involving spalling masonry, brick deteriorations, and facade issues which affected multiple courtyards.

There are active concerns regarding facade maintenance and fire escape accessibility, with violations for blocked fire escapes and exterior maintenance documented in 2024. The building has undergone regular rodent inspections, with evidence of rat activity confirmed in December 2024 and multiple bait applications throughout 2023-2025. While the property management has addressed some issues and resolved certain violations, the building's maintenance history shows persistent challenges with both environmental concerns and safety systems, requiring ongoing attention to basic residential standards.
