Augrented Insights Report for 696 Rhinelander Avenue

696 Rhinelander Avenue is a 32-unit, 5-story New Law Tenement building located in Van Nest, constructed in 1928 and currently owned by Ben Celaj. The property has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, with five documented emergencies between 2022 and 2025 affecting either the entire building or specific apartments. Particularly notable was a series of four heat/hot water complaints in early 2024 (January, March) and another in February 2025, all of which required HPD intervention.

The building has also faced various maintenance challenges, including a Cluster of violations in 2022 related to Apartment 4F, which included issues with flooring, plumbing, and an insect infestation that were subsequently addressed. Additional inspections revealed violations in 2023 pertaining to heat supply, hot water fixtures, and access to the heating system in Apartment 3B, which were certified as corrected. The building's history includes several significant maintenance issues, such as a mold complaint in 2022, window frame and plumbing concerns, and multiple housing maintenance code violations.

However, in recent years (2023-2025), there have been no recorded bedbug infestations, as evidenced by regular annual reporting showing zero infested units. The property has maintained compliance with rodent control requirements, passing inspections in this area. While there have been two active ECB violations related to permits from 2018, their status indicates no violation warranted at time of inspection. The building has received various permits between 2018-2021 for different maintenance and repair work, suggesting ongoing attention to building upkeep.
