Augrented Insights Report for 516 12th Street

516 12th Street is a three-story, 6-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1902, currently owned by Larry Becker. The property has experienced several maintenance issues over recent years, with the most concerning being a hazardous boiler situation in November 2018 involving a defective pressure relief device that warranted a $1,250 penalty and a cease-use order. More recent violations in 2023 indicate failures to file required external low-pressure inspections for 2018, 2019, and 2022, though one violation from 2022 was dismissed.

During September 2021, the building faced multiple housing maintenance issues in Apartment 1R, including plumbing problems with the bathtub/shower, flooring concerns, cabinet issues, and an unsanitary condition involving pests, all of which resulted in various violations. These violations were officially closed, with repairs documented through Notices of Violation issued in August 2022, covering bathroom tile repairs, bathtub silicone replacement, cabinet replacement, and electrical service improvements. The building's recent history shows improved pest control, with Bedbug Reporting from 2018 through 2024 indicating zero infested units during the past seven reporting periods.

Rodent inspections in 2014 showed initial rat activity, but a subsequent compliance inspection passed. The property has maintained regular bedbug reporting compliance, and a plumbing permit was issued in July 2021. While the building's violation history is notable, there have been no reported bedbug infestations in recent years, and most historical violations have been resolved. However, the active 2023 violations regarding low-pressure inspection filings and the 2018 boiler incident suggest ongoing maintenance oversight challenges.
