Augrented Insights Report for 115 East 116th Street

115 East 116th Street is a 48-unit, 6-story residential building in East Harlem, constructed in 1925 and currently owned by Martin Scharf. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water complaints, particularly notable in 2025 with three unresolved complaints in March and one in April, all affecting the entire building. Recent inspections from 2024-2025 have revealed several open violations in apartment 6C, including issues with carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, a missing escutcheon plate at the heat riser, door self-closing issues, and a cockroach infestation.

The building has also faced elevator service challenges, with multiple complaints about "Single Device on Property/No Alternate Service" status between October-November 2023, and an active complaint from December 2024 regarding similar elevator service issues. The property has a documented history of pest control challenges, with visible activity in 2018 and 2022, though more recent rodent inspections in 2023-2025 have consistently passed. Notably, the building faced several significant violations in 2019 related to unauthorized transient use of apartment 1C, including failure to maintain proper safety systems and egress requirements, for which fines were issued. However, these violations were resolved.

The building has maintained generally good compliance with rodent control measures in recent years, with the most recent inspections showing no violations. A benchmarking violation from 2019 was dismissed. Recent bedbug reports show minimal infestation activity, with only two units affected between 2022-2023. The property appears to have active management of housing maintenance issues, as evidenced by regular 311 complaint filings and appropriate agency responses, despite the frequency of repeat complaints regarding basic services like heat and hot water.
