Augrented Insights Report for 343 East 53rd Street

The 6-unit, 3-story residential building at 343 East 53rd Street, owned by Esther Rubin, has exhibited persistent maintenance issues over the past several years. The property, constructed in 1920, is currently facing multiple active violations including the failure to file required External Low-Pressure Inspections from 2018 through 2023, with the most recent violation dating from September 2024.

Recent complaints in 2025 have focused on water leaks and paint issues, though HPD inspections for these complaints were not completed, with instructions given to refile if problems persist. There have been multiple plumbing and repair issues documented, including a steam pipe/riser problem and multiple reports of unsanitary conditions related to pests in early 2025. The building has a documented history of maintenance challenges, particularly affecting Apartment 2R, which has been the subject of multiple violations including pest infestation, door self-closing mechanism problems, and various plumbing and plaster issues.

The property has also experienced heat/hot water problems and appliance issues, particularly concerning electric/gas ranges, as evidenced by complaints and inspections in late 2024. Additionally, there are several open violations from 2021-2023 regarding bedbug reporting requirements and various building systems maintenance issues, including problems with water leaks, plaster surfaces, and intercom systems. While some inspection responses found no violations, the frequency and pattern of complaints suggest ongoing maintenance challenges within the building.
