Augrented Insights Report for 168 East 96th Street

The 4-unit, 2-story New Law Tenement building at 168 East 96th Street, owned by Mr. Chase, has undergone several significant maintenance and compliance events since 2021.

The most pressing recent issue was a water leak affecting the ceiling in January 2024 (Apartment 2F), which also generated multiple violations including problematic plaster surfaces, damaged ceramic tiles in the kitchenette, and defective carbon monoxide and smoke detecting devices. An unsanitary condition related to garbage/recycling storage was reported in June 2024, though no violations were found upon inspection. The building's history reveals more serious concerns from 2019, when four Environmental Control Board violations were issued regarding illegal transient use of Apartment 1F, along with associated safety concerns about missing sprinkler systems, inadequate means of egress, and insufficient fire alarm systems.

These violations were ultimately resolved. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestation over the past four reporting periods (2019-2024), with zero reported cases in any dwelling unit. Previous maintenance records indicate ongoing attention to building systems and compliance, though the 2024 water leak incident suggests continuing infrastructure maintenance challenges.
