Augrented Insights Report for 174 West 89th Street

174 West 89th Street is a 5-story, 20-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Peter Gerken. The property has experienced persistent heating system challenges, particularly during the 2024 winter period, with multiple heat and hot water complaints registered between November 2024 and December 2024, including violations affecting apartments 1B and 1C, and issues with boiler room access.

2023-2024 also saw significant maintenance concerns in apartment 1C, with documented rodent issues in 2023 requiring extermination, followed by violations in 2024 related to hot water availability, coupled with structural and safety concerns including defective flooring, sink cabinet issues, and missing carbon monoxide detectors, all of which have since been resolved. The building has a history of rodent-related incidents, with the most recent inspection in March 2025 passing without violations. Between 2023 and 2024, there were several inspections showing mixed results, though recent inspections suggest improvements in rodent control.

Previous issues from 2019-2020 were documented regarding unauthorized construction work in apartment 1B, including plumbing and drywall modifications, which resulted in Environmental Control Board violations. Bedbug incidents appear to have been effectively managed, with no reported cases since 2022. The building's permit history shows proper filing and issuance of permits for necessary work, with the most recent being in 2021 for plumbing-related work.
