Augrented Insights Report for 243 East 51st Street

243 East 51st Street is a 3-story, 6-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1931, currently owned by Robert Dwyer. The property has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent years, with the most frequent problems being heat and hot water service failures.

Between November 2024 and December 2024 alone, there were three separate emergency complaints regarding heating issues throughout the building, including violations involving inadequate heat supply in apartments 1 and 6. The building has also faced persistent water-related problems, with multiple complaints in 2024 about water leaks, including heavy flow incidents in September and October 2024, as well as a slow leak complaint in August 2024. Additional issues documented in 2024 include ceiling and wall damage requiring repairs in apartments 3 and 6, an unsanitary condition involving mold (August 2024), and electrical problems including inadequate lighting (July 2024).

The Department of Buildings records show multiple active violations related to failure to file annual boiler and low-pressure inspections between 2018 and 2024. Access issues have been a recurring theme, as evidenced by multiple complaints where inspectors were unable to gain access to apartments for necessary inspections, particularly notable in several work without permit investigations in 2023-2024 and building shaking complaints in May 2023. While the building has maintained a bedbug-free status based on reporting from 2023, the ongoing pattern of maintenance violations and access issues suggests persistent challenges with building upkeep and regulatory compliance.
