Augrented Insights Report for 72 Richardson Street

The 72 Richardson Street building in Williamsburg, owned by Eddie Orellena, is a 5-story, 20-unit tenement constructed in 1928. The property has experienced recurring plumbing issues, with two recent non-emergency complaints about bathtub/shower problems in December 2024 that were reportedly resolved upon HPD's notification. The building has a notable history of heat and hot water problems, with emergency complaints recorded in February 2024 and January 2022, though in both instances, tenants reported that services were restored before HPD's arrival.

Rodent-related issues have been a persistent concern, with violations documented in March 2024 regarding roach infestation in Apartment 5 (2nd floor), and the building has repeatedly shown evidence of rodent activity across various inspections between 2014 and 2022. The property has also faced multiple safety-related citations, including defective fire escapes requiring repairs in March 2024, inadequate lighting in fire passageways, and several outstanding violations regarding self-closing doors and emergency egress requirements noted during the September 2023 inspection. Maintenance issues have been regularly addressed through various 311 complaints, including a cluster of renovations needed in May 2019 involving ceiling, flooring, and window repairs. The building's maintenance history shows some mixed results, with a full compliance pass on rodent inspections in 2021-2022 following a pattern of rat activity detection in previous years.

Recent bedbug filings from 2022-2024 indicate no infestation issues during the reporting periods. The property has demonstrated some responsiveness to maintenance issues, as evidenced by the closure of multiple violations and complaints, though several open violations remain, including a 2024 citation regarding the need for a proper means of egress from the yard to the street. The data also reflects regular communication with city agencies regarding maintenance and housing code compliance, with most issues being addressed through proper channels, though some problems persist over time. The building's age and history as a New Law Tenement is evident in the pattern of maintenance issues typically associated with older properties, particularly regarding plumbing, pest control, and safety features, though recent years show some improvement in bedbug management and rodent control.
