Augrented Insights Report for 202 West 81st Street

202 West 81st Street is a 5-story, 25-unit Old Law Tenement building located in New York City's Upper West Side, owned by Jaroslaw Skornicki and constructed in 1920.

The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues, most notably with its single elevator system, which has been the subject of multiple complaints and violations between 2021 and 2023 regarding out-of-service conditions and safety concerns, resulting in several fines totaling $9,347.07 in 2023 alone. Recent complaints include a January 2025 heat/hot water issue affecting the entire building, though HPD was unable to inspect the premises, and the discovery of rat activity during compliance inspections in 2022 and 2023, with the most recent rodent inspection in January 2025 passing.

Apartment 1D has multiple open violations from May 2024 related to various maintenance issues, including defective caulking around the bathtub, plaster and paint problems, and a loose metal saddle, though these are not currently affecting other units. The building's maintenance record shows a mix of resolved and open issues, with previous concerns about pest control, sanitation, and heat/hot water systems, including a problematic pattern of elevator outages that has persisted despite multiple inspections and violations.
