Augrented Insights Report for 155 South 4th Street

155 South 4th Street is a 40-unit, 6-story tenement building constructed in 1917 and currently owned by Cvel Realty Corp. The property has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water, with the most recent complaint filed in February 2025 regarding lack of heat/hot water in the entire building. There have been multiple unsanitary condition complaints, including reports of pests in 2024, mold in 2023, and several heat/hot water complaints since 2021, including both building-wide and apartment-specific issues.

Significant violations were documented in late 2023 concerning Apartment 38, including problems with carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, water leaks, and pest infestation, though these were certified as corrected by October 2023. The building's recent history also shows multiple indoor air quality concerns in October 2023, and while bedbug reports from 2021 to 2025 indicate no confirmed infestations, there have been consistent maintenance issues. The property has active and resolved Department of Buildings violations related to energy efficiency score display requirements, with the most recent violation from December 2024 still listed as active.

Previous concerns about illegal occupancy and failure to maintain code compliance regarding fire safety systems were documented in 2018. The building has undergone several rodent inspections between 2015 and 2019, with varying results including evidence of rat activity in 2016. Despite these persistent issues, recent bedbug reporting from 2025 shows zero infested units, indicating some improved pest management.
