Augrented Insights Report for 56 Morton Street

56 Morton Street, a 5-story, 15-unit Old Law Tenement building in the West Village owned by Vito Cutugno, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, the building suffered significant fire damage affecting multiple apartments (2W, 2E, and 4E) as of October 2024, with open violations related to this incident.

The property has a persistent rodent problem, with inspections in 2024 showing rat activity and multiple bait applications. While there appears to be some improvement in recent months, with the building passing a September 2024 compliance inspection, the frequency of rodent-related complaints and inspections over the past two years is concerning. The building has also experienced various maintenance issues requiring attention, including water leaks and problems with painting/plastering in 2025, unsanitary garbage storage conditions in 2023, and plumbing issues in 2022.

An electrical wiring complaint from July 2024 was closed due to inspector access issues, and a drainage-related complaint from December 2023 was found to have no violations. On a positive note, the building has maintained a bedbug-free record for several years, with no reported infestations since prior to 2020. Recent rodent inspections have shown some progress, with bait application followed by compliance inspections, though the pattern of repeated rodent-related complaints suggests ongoing challenges with maintaining sanitary conditions.
