Augrented Insights Report for 3 Essex Street

The 3 Essex Street building in Cypress Hills is a three-story, 6-unit New Law Tenement constructed in 1915, currently owned by Y. Perl. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent years, with several significant problems emerging between 2023 and 2025.

Most notably, there were two sewage-related complaints and door frame issues in June 2025, as well as multiple instances of mold problems (May and July 2024) and water leaks (October 2023). The building has consistent issues with sanitation and maintenance, as evidenced by multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations. An inspection in July 2024 revealed several Open Class B violations in Apartment 1L, including problems with mold, carbon monoxide detector, smoke detector, and defective plastered surfaces.

The property has shown some improvement in pest management, with no reported bedbug infestations in the last five reporting periods between 2021 and 2025, and rodent inspections in 2012 and 2019 both passed. Previous violations from 2023 included door issues, garbage storage problems, and water leaks. While some earlier violations have been resolved, many recent issues suggest ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly concerning sanitation and safety systems.
