Augrented Insights Report for 203 West 87th Street

203 West 87th Street is a 5-story, 39-unit old law tenement building constructed in 1915 and currently managed by 203-205 W 87th Street Owners Corp. The building has experienced several maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with the most significant problems emerging in 2019-2020. In 2019, there were multiple housing maintenance code complaints regarding various unit conditions including cabinets, electrical outlets, appliances, doors, flooring, and smoke detectors, with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) unable to gain access for inspections.

The building faced serious safety concerns in late 2019 related to gas utility violations, inadequate sprinkler systems, and unauthorized gas dryer installations in the laundry room, resulting in substantial fines totaling $12,500. There were also multiple violations regarding gas supply issues and missing safety postings between 2019-2020, including problems in multiple apartments with gas range supplies. More recent inspections and reports indicate some improvement in building conditions. The building has successfully filed annual bedbug reports from 2021-2024 showing no infestations.

Rodent inspections conducted in 2023-2025 have generally passed, though there were some indications of rat activity in mid-2022. The building has maintained active compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing no infested units in recent years. However, there are still active violations regarding failure to perform Category 5 elevator inspections and some issues related to elevator maintenance from 2019 that remain unresolved. The building's most recent rodent and bedbug inspections have shown compliance, suggesting improvement in pest management, though the building's history shows areas requiring ongoing maintenance attention.
