Augrented Insights Report for 42 Morton Street

The 17-unit, 5-story building at 42 Morton Street in the West Village, owned by Michael Sloane, has a significant history of pest-related issues, particularly regarding rodent infestations. Most notably, from 2025 through July 2025, there has been consistent rodent activity with multiple bait applications recorded, including applications in April through July 2025 and a confirmed finding of rat activity in April 2025. The building has also experienced recurring garbage and recycling storage issues, with violations documented in 2021 and more recently in 2023 when a violation was issued for improper garbage can lids at the building front.

A concerning pattern emerged in 2018 when multiple violations were recorded regarding illegal transient use, fire safety systems, and egress requirements, though these were resolved with penalties ranging from $312 to $2500. The building's maintenance record shows several areas of concern. In 2019, there were heating and hot water access issues, while 2020 saw multiple emergency complaints regarding doors, plumbing, and ceiling conditions that were subsequently closed.

Although the building has maintained a "0 infested unit" record in its bedbug filings from 2021 through 2024, the persistent rodent issues and historical violations related to sanitation and building safety are notable. More recently, as of June 2023, there are active violations regarding external low pressure inspection filings for 2019 and 2020 that remain unresolved. The property has required multiple follow-up inspections and treatments for rodent activity throughout 2025, indicating ongoing pest management challenges.
