Augrented Insights Report for 234 West 48th Street

Located in the Theater District, 234 West 48th Street is a 16-story Class B building constructed in 1927 and currently owned by Tomer Pomerantz. The building has experienced recurring pest issues, with the most recent complaint about unsanitary conditions and pests having been filed in June 2025 and remains open. Between 2024 and 2025, there have been multiple pest-related complaints, though some inspections showed no violations were found.

The property has also faced significant structural and maintenance challenges, evidenced by several active Department of Buildings (DOB) violations related to facade maintenance, including spalling bricks at the parapet wall and issues with the roof. Three active ECB (Environmental Control Board) violations from 2022-2024 pertain to the failure to file required facade inspection reports, with penalties totaling over $10,000. The building's safety systems have raised concerns, particularly in apartment 703, where violations were issued in 2019 regarding smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, bathroom mold, and a defective bathtub.

Recent history shows a mix of building system issues, including an emergency heat and hot water complaint in 2020 that was promptly resolved, and multiple elevator-related complaints in 2024 resulting in Oath Violations being served. There have been several complaints about building maintenance, such as plumbing issues in 2019 involving water supply and bathroom facilities, though most were resolved promptly. The building's management has generally addressed violations and complaints, with multiple permits issued between 2019-2024 for various work, including facade repairs and system upgrades. While the building has maintained compliance with annual bedbug reporting requirements (showing zero infested units in recent filings), the persistent pest issues and ongoing facade maintenance violations suggest attention to building maintenance is warranted.
