Augrented Insights Report for 240 Columbus Avenue

240 Columbus Avenue is a 4-story, 8-unit old law tenement building located in the Upper West Side, constructed in 1884 and currently owned by Joshua Salon. The building has recently experienced a cluster of related issues, with multiple service requests and violations recorded in April 2025, including problems with window frames, ceiling paint/plaster, stairs, pest control, sprinkler systems, lighting, garbage/recycling storage, and window guards.

While HPD inspections of these complaints generally found no violations of housing laws, violations were issued for ceiling and signage issues that require correction. The building has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections from 2015 through 2024, and bedbug reports from 2022-2024 show no cases of infestation or eradication. Looking at the building's history from 2020 to present, there were several significant events including multiple sidewalk shed-related violations in 2021 with penalties totaling $37,250, and building maintenance violations in 2020 regarding facade conditions.

In 2019, there were violations related to illegal hotel room use and fire alarm system deficiencies in Apartment 2C, which were resolved. The building's management company has generally addressed maintenance issues as they arise, though there have been multiple instances of violations regarding the failure to certify corrections for immediately hazardous conditions in 2020-2021. The most recent bedbug reports have shown no instances of infestation for three consecutive years, and the property has passed all recent rodent inspections, indicating improved pest control management.
