Augrented Insights Report for 2170 University Avenue

The 111-unit, 6-story apartment building at 2170 University Avenue, built in 1959 and currently owned by 2170 U LLC, has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, there have been persistent rodent problems, with violations documented in 2025 and multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions related to pests. The building has also faced significant maintenance challenges, including active violations related to cracked masonry, leaking roofs, and façade issues documented in 2024, along with a partial vacate order affecting the north and south courtyards.

Apartment-specific problems include lead paint hazards, mold, and pest infestations, particularly in units 1P and 2E. The building's systems have shown various deficiencies, including ventilation problems, sanitation concerns with garbage storage, and multiple elevator-related complaints. Recent inspections and complaints (2023-2025) have revealed ongoing issues with building systems and safety equipment, though some violations have been resolved through inspections.

The property has consistently reported no bedbug infestations in recent years, with the last known occurrence being two units affected in 2018-2019. While the building has implemented some corrective measures, as evidenced by closed violations, several critical issues remain open or were only temporarily addressed. Most recently, in July 2025, there was a rodent-related complaint that was processed through the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. The building's history shows periodic inspection patterns, particularly regarding rodent activity, with both passed and failed inspections and bait applications noted between 2023 and 2025.
