Augrented Insights Report for 2177 East 21st Street

The 45-unit, 4-story building at 2177 East 21st Street in Sheepshead Bay, owned by Mitchell Shpelfogel, has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent years, with particular concentration on infrastructure and habitability concerns. Between April and May 2025 alone, there were multiple complaints regarding flooring, walls, ceilings, plumbing (specifically bathtub/shower issues), and mold, with several inspections being unable to be completed by HPD.

Earlier complaints from 2025 also included problems with garbage/recycling storage and heat/hot water systems affecting the entire building, though these were subsequently verified as corrected by HPD. The building has a history of security-related violations, as shown by 2024 inspections revealing problems with self-closing doors and latches at various entry points, while a more serious violation from 2023-2024 involved a roach infestation in Apartment 303 and lead paint hazards in the same unit. The property has shown recurring compliance challenges with Local Law requirements, including an active inspection for compliance as of October 2024, while earlier inspections in 2024 resulted in "No Violation" findings.

Historical Department of Buildings records show the building underwent various repairs and improvements through permitted work in 2018-2019, though there were violations regarding failure to maintain building code compliance and a period of emergency plumbing issues related to the boiler system. Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases between 2021 and 2024, and passed rodent inspections in 2012 and 2021. The age of the building (built in 1926) and its history as a "New Law Tenement" contribute to its complex maintenance needs, which have required ongoing attention to both structural and habitability concerns over recent years.
