Augrented Insights Report for 194 South 2nd Street

194 South 2nd Street is a 3-story, 9-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Williamsburg, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Sam Wieder. The building has experienced notable recent issues with heating and hot water systems, as demonstrated by a December 2024 complaint that required HPD intervention, though these services were reportedly restored during inspection. More concerning is an open Class C Housing Maintenance Code violation from December 2024 regarding a defective front entrance lockset, which poses a potential security risk.

The property has a documented history of bedbug reporting compliance, with all filings between 2021 and 2024 showing zero infested or re-infested units. There have been recurring issues with proper reporting and maintenance compliance; three consecutive annual bedbug report violations (2021-2023), and multiple construction-related violations in 2019 including failure to post permits, safety plan non-compliance, and work site safety issues, all of which were ultimately resolved. The building underwent rodent inspections in 2014 and 2019, showing initial rat activity in 2014 and 2019, though it passed subsequent compliance inspections in these years.

Several complaints related to illegal after-hours work were filed in 2018, though inspections found no violations at that time. The most recent bedbug report (2024) shows no infestations or related issues, and the building appears to be maintaining basic compliance with rodent control requirements, having passed the most recent inspection. While construction safety violations occurred in 2019, these were addressed through proper channels. The building's heating system issues in late 2024 are an ongoing concern, along with the unresolved front entrance lockset violation.
