Augrented Insights Report for 171 Bay 17th Street

171 Bay 17th Street is a 4-story, 18-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1912 and currently owned by Joseph Cohen. The property has experienced significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly in 2025, with multiple reports of water leaks (including heavy flow and slow leaks) and rodent problems resulting in DOHMH violations. The building has also faced recurring heating and hot water system failures, with multiple emergency complaints filed and inspected between 2025 and 2024, though some were ultimately determined not to violate housing laws. Inspection records from December 2024 revealed several violations in apartment 2D, including issues with water leaks, pest infestations (mice and roaches), and problems with heating systems, though some violations were subsequently certified as corrected between December 2024 and March 2025.

The building's recent history shows persistent infrastructure challenges, with multiple water leak complaints throughout 2025 and heating system problems documented earlier in 2024. An inspection in December 2024 noted various deficiencies in apartment 2D, including problems with windows, plaster surfaces, and missing carbon monoxide detectors, though these violations were certified for correction in early 2025. The building has also undergone several Department of Buildings inspections regarding structural stability, with complaints about shaking and vibration recorded in 2020 and 2022. An environmental violation concerning deteriorating cornices was recorded in 2022, and while there have been multiple building-wide heating system issues and water leaks, the elevator system appears to have been maintained, with permits issued for work in 2019 and 2021 showing proper oversight of the vertical transport system.

The property has maintained a regular bedbug reporting record since 2019, consistently showing no infestations. Rodent inspections have produced mixed results, with the most recent July 2025 inspection failing for "Other Reasons," while earlier inspections in 2023 and 2024 passed. The building's ownership has responded to various violations over time, with many being resolved through proper certification, though some remain open as of the latest inspection records. The data indicates ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding water systems and building envelope conditions, while showing some success in addressing pest control and elevator maintenance issues.
