Augrented Insights Report for 324 West 49th Street

The 18-unit, 5-story Old Law Tenement at 324 West 49th Street in Hell's Kitchen, owned by Matthew Keller and constructed in 1920, has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, there is currently an active dispute regarding illegal occupancy as an unlicensed physical treatment establishment ("Snowflakes Spa") on the ground and cellar levels, with associated ECB violations totaling over $20,000 in penalties from 2022-2024.

Recent resident complaints in 2025 have included issues with cooking gas, heat and hot water, pest infestations, and safety concerns, including broken window guards and carbon monoxide detectors. The building has a documented history of rodent problems, with multiple bait applications recorded between 2021-2022, though recent inspections in 2023 and 2024 have passed.

Housing Maintenance Code violations from late 2024 show various maintenance issues requiring attention, including heating system access problems and heating supply concerns in Apartment 4FW, while Apartment 5RE has multiple open violations from 2024 related to electrical fixtures, heating, and pest infestations. The building's history also includes several instances of bedbug and pest control treatments between 2019-2024, though recent reports indicate no current infestations. The property has undergone several inspections for illegal occupancy and adult establishment violations, with most recent inspections in 2023-2024 indicating continued non-compliance with previous vacate orders, contributing to the current active ECB violations.
