Augrented Insights Report for 2233 81st Street

The four-story, 24-unit tenement building at 2233 81st Street in Gravesend, owned by Nicholas Balzano, has experienced recurring maintenance and safety issues over recent years, with several active violations remaining as of July 2025. Most notably, there are current violations from June 2024 regarding defective vestibule door latch mechanisms and missing gas leak notice requirements in the common area.

The building has a documented history of water-related issues, including three complaints in December 2023 (though one inspection could not gain access), as well as multiple plumbing and water leak problems between 2021-2022. There are several active Department of Buildings violations related to failure to file required annual inspections between 2018-2021, regarding both external low pressure inspections and boiler annual inspection reports. Past concerns include an emergency heat/hot water issue in November 2021 that was corrected, and multiple inspections in 2021 found no violations despite documenting various maintenance issues.

Between 2020-2022, there were significant boiler and safety concerns, including violations for defective boiler operation, blocked egress paths, and a building vibration complaint in 2022. While rodent inspections conducted in 2017-2018 passed, the building has faced ongoing challenges with maintenance compliance, particularly regarding timely inspections and repairs. The most recent set of violations from June 2023-2024 indicates continued oversight regarding property maintenance and safety requirements, including official notices related to bedbug reporting requirements and other building safety protocols.
