Augrented Insights Report for 1160 5th Avenue

The 6-story, 61-unit New Law Tenement building at 1160 5th Avenue in East Harlem, owned by Philip Goldfarb, was constructed in 1923 and has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over recent years. The most pressing current concern involves an unsanitary mold condition reported in June 2025, for which HPD was unable to complete an inspection. The building has a documented history of heating and hot water problems, particularly evident in 2020-2021 when multiple complaints were filed regarding both building-wide and individual unit issues, though many of these were reportedly resolved.

More recent environmental concerns include a 2023 Indoor Air Quality complaint that was referred to the Department of Environmental Protection. The property has undergone several compliance inspections under Local Law 188/17, with the most recent in October 2023 showing no violations warranting enforcement action. Notable historical issues include multiple pest infestation complaints (most recently in 2022), various housing maintenance violations primarily affecting apartment 601 in 2018 (including missing window guards and door issues), and construction-related violations from 2019-2020 involving electrical work and fire safety concerns.

The building has consistently passed rodent inspections, with the most recent completed in May 2025. While there have been some emergency violations in the past, such as the 2019 reports of incomplete fire protection and missing ceiling sheetrock in three apartments, these were ultimately resolved. The building's bedbug reporting history shows consistent zero infestation reports since 2021, suggesting effective pest management practices.
