Augrented Insights Report for 127 South 2nd Street

127 South 2nd Street is a three-story, four-unit Old Law Tenement building in Williamsburg, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Chaya Buxbaum. The property has experienced significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly in early 2024, when there were multiple complaints about heat and hot water outages affecting the entire building, with violation notices issued regarding inadequate hot water supply (specifically cited in an open February 2024 violation affecting Apartment 2). An electrical lighting complaint was also filed in March 2024, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the problem.

The building has a documented history of water-related issues, with complaints about dampness and leaks in 2024 and earlier incidents in 2021 and 2018. The property faced regulatory scrutiny in 2018-2019, with several Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations related to construction work and compliance issues, though most were resolved with no penalties due. Inspection records indicate a pattern of rat activity in 2019, though more recent rodent inspections in 2023-2024 showed compliance status as passed.

The building has maintained a clean bedbug record, with no infestations reported in the most recent filings for the periods ending October 2023 and October 2022. Recent inspections of the building's systems and conditions, including a February 2024 rodent inspection showing compliance, suggest some degree of improvement, though persistent issues with heat/hot water and electrical systems remain a concern. The building's violation record shows a mix of resolved and open violations, with the most recent being related to building access and hot water issues.
