Augrented Insights Report for 449 West 37th Street

The 20-unit, 5-story tenement building at 449 West 37th Street in Hell's Kitchen, built in 1900, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, as of February 2025, there is an open complaint regarding unsanitary conditions related to pests. Previous issues include mold problems (March 2024), door repairs (August 2023), and multiple maintenance complaints from December 2021 involving paint/plaster work, pest control, and heat/hot water restoration.

The building underwent significant scrutiny in 2020-2024, with multiple illegal hotel room complaints leading to Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations, particularly concerning safety systems (fire alarm, sprinkler) and occupancy issues in apartment 2RW. Recent violations include failures to file external low-pressure inspection reports in 2023-2024, and a 2024 inspection revealed various maintenance needs in the public areas including ceiling repairs, water leaks, and painting requirements. The property has had a mixed history with pest management, showing some rodent activity in 2019 with multiple bait applications, though recent inspections (October 2024) have shown improvements.

Bedbug reports in 2024-2025 indicate no current infestation issues. The building underwent various safety inspections resulting in multiple violations, most of which have been addressed and closed, though some remain active as of 2024. These include issues with door systems, carbon monoxide detectors, and various repair requirements in apartment 1RW. The building's owner has shown responsiveness to many complaints, with numerous issues being documented as corrected through proper procedures.
