Augrented Insights Report for 437 West 43rd Street

This 3-story, 6-unit building in Hell's Kitchen, owned by Gus Nunez and constructed in 1920, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over the past years. Most notably, there have been recurring problems with mold, particularly affecting Apartment 1, documented through both HPD complaints and violations in 2021-2022, which included both emergency and open Class B violations regarding mold conditions and water leaks.

The building underwent substantial work in 2022, which resulted in multiple complaints regarding construction practices, including unauthorized work (as noted in complaints and ECB violations), inadequate tenant protection plans, and failure to properly post important safety information. These construction activities also generated dust-related air quality complaints in June 2022 and multiple debris-related complaints. The building has faced various other maintenance challenges, including a complete heating and hot water system examination in July 2018 (though inspectors were unable to enter for verification), rodent issues in 2022 (with visible rat activity noted in multiple inspections), and multiple bedbug reporting requirements filed between 2021-2024 showing zero infested units.

Recent inspections indicate improved conditions, with a passed rodent inspection in October 2024 and no current open bedbug violations. The building has received several Class A violations between 2021-2024 regarding bedbug reporting requirements, though the most recent filings in 2024 show compliance with no reported infestations. Four open violations from 2021-2022 remain on record, primarily related to maintenance issues in Apartment 1, including problems with plaster surfaces and water-related concerns.
