Augrented Insights Report for 190 South 8th Street

The 41-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement building at 190 South 8th Street in Williamsburg, owned by Robert Raphael and constructed in 1917, has experienced several concerning issues in recent years. Most notably, the building has faced recurring sanitation and maintenance challenges, particularly in 2025, with multiple reports of unsanitary conditions related to garbage storage, pests, and mold, along with structural concerns involving flooring, walls, and ceilings. During inspections in June 2025, violations were issued regarding garbage/recycling storage, while inspections for other complaints were either incomplete or resulted in no violations. The building has a history of heating system issues, with an open violation from November 2024 regarding inadequate heat supply in apartment 39, and safety concerns including an open violation from November 2024 regarding defective self-closing doors at building entrances. The property has undergone various inspections related to potential illegal activity, with multiple complaints about illegal hotel rooms and conversions between 2022 and 2025, though inspectors were often unable to gain access.

In 2018, serious construction and safety violations were documented in unit 23, including unauthorized plumbing, electrical, and construction work, though these were subsequently resolved. The building has also experienced periodic pest issues, with bedbug reports documented annually from 2021 to 2024, and rodent control efforts noted between 2012 and 2018. Recent complaints suggest continuing maintenance challenges, with multiple violations and service requests in 2025, particularly regarding sanitation and building systems. Here's a summary of some recent significant events: - Multiple sanitation-related complaints in 2025, including garbage storage and pest issues (most recently in June 2025). - Open violation as of November 2024 regarding inadequate heat supply in apartment 39.

- Multiple complaints and inspections regarding illegal hotel rooms and conversions between 2022-2025, though access issues hindered verification. - Documented construction violations in 2018 regarding unauthorized work in unit 23, including plumbing, electrical, and fire safety issues (subsequently resolved). - Recurring bedbug infestations reported in 2021-2024, with the most recent case involving 1 infested unit. - Historical rodent activity documented in 2012-2018, with baiting efforts and periodic inspections showing inconsistent results. The building's records show a pattern of maintenance challenges and regulatory compliance issues, particularly related to sanitation, building systems, and unauthorized modifications, with some violations remaining open for extended periods. While some past violations have been resolved, including those from 2018 regarding unit 23, recent service requests and violations suggest ongoing maintenance concerns.
