Augrented Insights Report for 20 West 77th Street

20 West 77th Street is a four-story, 31-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1925, currently owned by Scott Metzner. The building has experienced recurring pest management challenges, with multiple rodent-related complaints between 2022 and 2024, though all subsequent inspections have resulted in passing grades.

The most recent complaint (December 2024) involved indoor air quality concerns that were referred from the Health Department to the Department of Environmental Protection. The building's maintenance history shows several significant violations, including an active penalty from 2021 for failure to comply with a previous violation regarding building exterior maintenance, though recent inspections generally show compliance with building codes.

The property has faced occasional heating issues, with a notable complaint in March 2019 regarding lack of heat/hot water to the entire building, though inspectors were unable to gain access for verification. Multiple inspection and compliance reports from 2019 to 2024 indicate regular oversight and enforcement actions, including construction safety compliance checks and tenant safety inspections, with most resulting in "No Violation Warranted For Complaint At Time Of Inspection." The building's environmental compliance record shows periodic issues with paperwork, such as an unfiled benchmarking report in 2024 and an annual boiler inspection report from 2019, though these were typically resolved promptly. Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all annual reports from 2017 to 2024 showing zero infested units.
