Augrented Insights Report for 170 Harman Street

The 6-unit, 3-story Old Law Tenement building at 170 Harman Street in Bushwick, owned by Yossel Lichtman, has experienced recurring infrastructure issues over the past several years, with the most recent concerns centering around water supply problems. A June 2025 complaint about water supply issues couldn't be inspected due to lack of access, and a December 2024 heat and hot water complaint was investigated but found not to violate housing laws.

The building has had multiple plumbing-related complaints between 2021 and 2023, including water supply issues in 2021 that resulted in violations. Apartment 2L has been the focus of several recent violations (2024), including defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, issues with plastered surfaces and paint in the bathroom and kitchen, and a visible mold condition. The apartment also had problems with a water leak at the kitchen ceiling.

The building has experienced persistent rodent activity, with inspections throughout 2023-2025 consistently showing rat activity, though there were two "passed" inspections. A brief period of heating issues was reported in May 2021, which was reportedly resolved, and there was one door/window issue reported in 2020. Notably, the building has maintained a record of no bedbug infestations over the past five reporting periods from 2021-2023, with all reporting periods showing zero infested units.
