Augrented Insights Report for 2137 Vyse Avenue

2137 Vyse Avenue is a 5-story, 20-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1916, currently owned by Benny Chaskelson. The property has experienced recurring plumbing issues in 2025, with multiple emergency complaints regarding bathtubs/showers, water supply problems, and sinks, some of which resulted in HPD violations requiring owner remediation.

Notably, Apartment 4B has significant maintenance concerns, including open violations as of April 2025 for light-colored paint requirements, along with previously documented issues in late 2024 involving mold, radiator problems, and multiple plumbing fixtures requiring repair or replacement. The building's elevator service has been problematic, with two emergency complaints in 2024 regarding single device operation and no alternate service, though these were ultimately closed with violation responses. In addition to plumbing and elevator issues, the building has faced various maintenance challenges, including pest control concerns as evidenced by multiple rodent inspections in 2025 showing rat activity and bait application, and some unsanitary conditions involving pests that resulted in violations.

The property has maintained a consistent record of being bedbug-free across multiple annual reporting periods from 2021 through 2025. Environmental Control Board documentation from May 2024 indicates several elevator-related maintenance issues requiring attention, with an active violation carrying a penalty. While the building is generally meeting basic housing maintenance code requirements, as indicated by many "closed" statuses for complaints and violations, the persistent nature of plumbing issues and recent elevator service problems may impact resident experience.
