Augrented Insights Report for 735 53rd Street

735 53rd Street is a three-story, seven-unit New Law tenement built in 1908, currently owned by Yu Feng Chen. The building has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant problems emerging between 2023-2024. During this period, multiple complaints regarding water leaks, unsanitary conditions including mold and pests, and various maintenance concerns such as window frame issues, flooring problems, and plumbing concerns were recorded.

Notably, inspections in March 2024 revealed multiple violations including the presence of mold (approximately 5 sq ft), water leakage problems, and various maintenance needs in the third-story public hall area such as ceiling and wall repairs, along with rust issues on balconies and rails. The property has two open violations as of August 2024 regarding safety signage requirements: one for not posting proper registration numbers and another for not providing gas leak notice procedures in the first-story public hall. Additionally, there is a lack of proper maintenance of fire retardant materials in the third-story hall, and various code compliance issues related to ceiling and wall conditions.

While there have been two complaints regarding illegal conversions in 2021 and 2022, inspectors were unable to gain access to the building for verification. A bedbug report filed in May 2024 for the period between November 2022 and October 2023 indicated no infested units, suggesting successful eradication efforts. The most recent service request, filed in May 2025, was related to a mobile food vendor and was handled by the NYC Health Department.
