Augrented Insights Report for 240 West 72nd Street

240 West 72nd Street is a 5-story brownstone building located in Manhattan's Upper West Side, containing 7 units and constructed in 1887, currently owned by Magdalena Kos. The property has experienced multiple water-related issues over the years, with the most recent complaints in 2024 involving damp spots and cabinet problems in Apartment 2B, and prior water leak complaints dating back to 2019.

The 2019 violations were notably concentrated in Apartment 2B, which has documented issues with ceiling and wall water damage, broken plaster surfaces, and problems with various fixtures including a sink cabinet. Recent inspections in 2024 found violations requiring repairs to the roof, plaster surfaces, and cabinetry in Apartment 2B, and while some violations were certified as closed in October 2024, others remain open pending resolution. The building has maintained an active record of addressing pest control issues, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past seven years according to recent filings from 2020 to 2025.

Rodent inspections have shown mixed results, with the most recent in August 2024 passing, though there was a reported instance of rat activity in September 2023 and a compliance failure in November 2023. The property has also undergone various maintenance and inspection activities, with some open violations from 2019 still pending resolution, including issues with missing marble saddles, plaster surfaces, and water leaks. Despite these ongoing maintenance matters, the building has demonstrated consistent efforts to address health and safety requirements, as evidenced by regular rodent inspections and bedbug monitoring with no reported infestations.
