Augrented Insights Report for 445 West 37th Street

445 West 37th Street is a 12-unit, 5-story old law tenement building constructed in 1910 in Hell's Kitchen, currently owned by Mayra Elso. The building has experienced recurring issues with fire escape maintenance, with multiple complaints and violations between 2019-2021, including emergency response situations in July 2021 and September 2020. More recently, there have been four consecutive open violations (2021-2024) related to the annual bedbug report requirement under Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) regulations.

The property faced significant regulatory scrutiny in 2019, with multiple violations and penalties related to illegal occupancy, unauthorized construction, and safety concerns, particularly regarding apartment #5R. These violations included obstructed egress, unauthorized room partitions, and occupancy contrary to the Certificate of Occupancy, though records indicate these issues were ultimately resolved through compliance actions by 2021. The building's external safety features have been a recurring concern, with inspections revealing problems such as obstructed fire escape access and various safety notice requirements not being met.

Despite these violations, the property has maintained a passing record in rodent inspections dating back to 2010, with the most recent inspection in October 2024 showing no issues. While many of the historical violations have been resolved, it's notable that as of July 2025, there remain several open violations primarily relating to bedbug reporting requirements, suggesting ongoing administrative compliance challenges. The building's inspection and violation history indicates a pattern of reactive rather than proactive maintenance response, particularly regarding life safety systems.
