Augrented Insights Report for 1698 Vyse Avenue

1698 Vyse Avenue is a 6-story, 37-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1924, currently owned by Jennifer Lau and located in East Morrisania. The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, with the most concerning being recurrent heating and hot water problems, including a system-wide outage in January 2025, and three major plumbing-related complaints between 2024 and 2025.

The building has also faced multiple unsanitary conditions, particularly in 2024, with violations related to mold, pests, and water leaks documented through Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) inspections. Apartment 4E has multiple outstanding violations from August 2024, including issues with carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, mold, and pest infestations, while apartment 2G has open violations from July 2024 regarding mold and water leaks. The building's electrical and plumbing systems have shown particular fragility, with three emergency complaints regarding power outages and water supply issues recorded between 2024 and 2025.

While the property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations in recent years (with all reports showing zero affected units since 2019), there have been ongoing concerns about rodent control, though recent inspections have passed. The building currently has active Department of Buildings violations from 2021 regarding the failure to display energy efficiency scores, and there were multiple elevator service complaints in late 2023 regarding alternate service, which were ultimately determined not to warrant violations upon inspection in February 2024. The property's maintenance record suggests persistent infrastructure challenges, particularly in terms of basic utility services, with multiple instances requiring emergency response from HPD.
