Augrented Insights Report for 49 West 85th Street

49 West 85th Street is a 6-story, 25-unit residential building constructed in 1972 and currently owned by Tia Maria Montemurro. The property has experienced significant heat and hot water issues, with eight emergency complaints filed between October 2024 and January 2025, all describing building-wide problems that HPD was unable to inspect due to access issues. In late 2024, violations were issued for ceiling paint/plaster and mold issues in Unit 6C, which were subsequently certified as corrected by November 2024.

The building has ongoing maintenance concerns, including an active ECB violation from September 2024 regarding the building walls with vertical cracking at the parapet level, though past violations for work without permit filed in 2025 were dismissed upon inspection. The property has documented instances of pest issues, with a bedbug infestation reported in early 2025 affecting one unit, though this was officially marked as eradicated. Previous filings show no infestations between 2021 and 2024.

Multiple unit-specific violations were recorded in 2024, including mold issues in Unit 6C, a roach infestation in Unit 5A, and various maintenance problems with plumbing and fire safety features. Despite these challenges, the building has maintained consistent rodent inspection pass records from 2016 through 2024, suggesting effective pest management in this regard. Recent property management actions include the issuance of three work permits between 2020 and 2021, indicating some level of ongoing maintenance and improvements to the building's systems.
