Augrented Insights Report for 5217 5th Avenue

5217 5th Avenue is a 4-story, 6-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1906 and currently owned by Miguel Hernandez. The building has experienced recurring heating and water issues, with the most recent complaint about lack of heat/hot water in February 2025, following similar complaints in October 2018 and October 2022, where HPD was unable to gain access to inspect the conditions.

The property has also faced electrical problems, with two simultaneous power outage incidents reported in November 2023, which were treated as immediate emergencies but resulted in no violations. The building underwent a significant period of maintenance issues in late 2018, particularly affecting apartment 2R, with several violations issued following inspections on December 21, 2018.

These violations included problems with carbon monoxide detectors, window guards, fire escape access, smoke detectors, self-closing doors, electrical outlets, and issues with plaster/paint conditions, including mold presence in the bathroom. While many of these violations were later certified as resolved between 2024-2025, there remain some open concerns regarding paint conditions and mold as of 2025. The building's bedbug report filings from 2018 through 2024 indicate no infestations have occurred, with all units reporting zero cases and no need for eradication efforts.
