Augrented Insights Report for 1921 Avenue K

1921 Avenue K is a 6-story, 67-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1928 and currently owned by Estie Bernstein. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with six complaints filed between November 12-23, 2024, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. These complaints were generally resolved promptly, with occupants reporting restoration of services during inspections.

The building has faced several structural and maintenance challenges, including multiple water leak incidents throughout 2024, with complaints about heavy flow, slow leaks, and damp spots. Two significant water-related violations were issued in 2024 regarding exterior building walls, with cracks reported near windows on the 6th floor facade, causing water leaks in Apartment F4, though these were ultimately resolved with penalties totaling $4,062. The building's elevator system has been a recurring concern, with multiple violations and complaints between 2018-2024 regarding maintenance issues, including problems with self-closing doors, monitoring systems, and other safety features. Recent inspections under Local Law 188/17 in 2024 noted no violations.

The property has experienced periodic bedbug infestations, with the most recent report (December 2024) indicating two affected units. Structural stability concerns were raised in 2023-2024, with complaints about building shaking/vibration and potential bulging/cracking of walls. Various maintenance code violations have been documented, including issues with windows, doors, and plastered surfaces, though most have been closed following proper certification of corrections. Additionally, the building has undergone regular rodent inspections in 2013 and 2017, both of which passed.
