Augrented Insights Report for 5 West 116th Street

The 6-story commercial altered class A building at 5 West 116th Street in Harlem, owned by Herminio Torres, has experienced a range of maintenance and safety issues from 2022 through 2025. Most recently, in 2025, there have been significant concerns including open complaints about heavy water flow and lighting problems (both classified as emergencies), and multiple violations for unsanitary conditions and pest problems. The building has documented persistent rodent activity, with multiple inspections between 2023 and 2025 showing rat activity and requiring the application of bait.

Apartment 519 has multiple open violations from 2024-2025 related to various maintenance issues including floor tiles, shelf repairs, plaster surfaces, and an earlier roach and mice infestation that was supposedly addressed in late 2024. The building's systems have shown recurring problems, particularly with heat and hot water as evidenced by several service requests in 2025. Elevator-related issues have been documented over the years, with violations and inspections showing problems with emergency systems, door alignment, and other mechanical aspects, though recent inspections in 2023-2024 suggested some improvements.

The property has had several non-emergency violations regarding flooring conditions, garbage storage, and other maintenance matters. While there have been documented instances of bedbug infestations between 2019 and 2023, the most recent reports (2023-2024) show no current infestations. The building's maintenance record shows a mix of addressed and ongoing issues, with particular attention needed to recent water, lighting, and pest problems, as well as the pattern of rodent activity.
