Augrented Insights
Initial analysis

The 3-story, 6-unit residential building at 41-41 49 Street in Sunnyside, built in 1928 and currently owned by 4141 Sunnyside Llc, has experienced significant maintenance issues in recent months, particularly concerning heat and hot water systems. Between November and December 2025, there were multiple emergency complaints and service requests regarding heat and hot water problems affecting both the entire building and individual apartments. In December 2025, the building underwent inspections revealing several serious violations related to building entrance door safety, including the improper installation of hook-and-eye devices preventing doors from self-closing, as well as problems with defective latches at both the main entrance and boiler room doors. These violations were classified as Class C (Immediately Hazardous) and Class B (Hazardous), though some were subsequently closed or dismissed. Of particular concern is an active Department of Buildings violation from November 2025 regarding an unfiled 2024 external low pressure boiler inspection, indicating possible issues with the building's heating infrastructure. The building's historical records show two notable incidents from 2008-2009: a construction-related violation concerning work beyond approved plans/permits, and a complaint about illegal commercial use in a residential zone, both of which were eventually closed.

Good Cause Eviction

Is 41-41 49 Street covered by Good Cause Eviction?

New York's Good Cause Eviction law (effective April 20, 2024) gives many market-rate tenants the right to renew their lease and challenge rent hikes above the annual local rent standard. It doesn't apply to every building.

Likely not covered. This building appears to be exempt from Good Cause Eviction for the reason below.
  • Small landlord. This landlord owns about 6 units across 1 building in our records — at or below the 10-unit small-landlord threshold.

Good Cause also excludes condos & co-ops, subsidized/regulated housing, and units renting above 245% of Fair Market Rent — signals we can't always confirm from public data. Not legal advice. Learn more at nyc.gov or call 311 for the Tenant Helpline.

What's driving this score

These are the three data points that most influenced this building's score — ranked by how much weight the model placed on each one.

Number of apartments

The number of residential units affects how the model interprets complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market conditions and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

Neighborhood location

The model uses precise location as a proxy for neighborhood-level risk patterns — some blocks have systematically higher violation rates.
