Augrented Insights Report for 455 East 117th Street

The 10-unit, 5-story Old Law Tenement building at 455 East 117th Street in East Harlem, owned by Bita Sassouni and constructed in 1920, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, there have been multiple heat and hot water-related complaints, with three separate incidents between 2021-2022 and one in 2019 affecting either individual apartments or the entire building. The building has also faced persistent rat infestation problems, with at least five inspections between 2022 and 2025 showing rat activity.

Recent violations from October 2024 include issues with the mailbox lock and missing superintendent contact information. Apartment 3 has been the focus of several specific violations, including a 2024 citation for fire escape window lock issues and previous complaints regarding window guards, door repairs, and pest infestations. The property has maintained an active bedbug reporting record since 2019, with no documented infestations in the past five reporting periods from late 2019 through 2024.

Environmental Control Board violations from September 2023 noted improper maintenance of window A/C units and peeling paint on the first floor facade. The building's recent inspection history shows mixed results for rodent activity, with the most recent inspections in 2025 confirming rat activity. While many housing maintenance code violations have been properly certified as corrected, the building's history suggests ongoing maintenance challenges that require regular attention.
