Augrented Insights Report for 342 Lenox Avenue

342 Lenox Avenue is a 5-story, 28-unit old law tenement building located in Harlem, built in 1909 and currently owned by Jay Newhouse. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water throughout 2024-2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed and violations issued, though some of these were not able to be verified due to inspection access issues.

In addition to the heating problems, there have been consistent concerns about pest control, particularly during 2024 when violations were issued for unsanitary conditions including pests. The building has had three inspections in 2025 related to rodent activity, with one rat sighting reported and a passing inspection result, though prior years showed evidence of rodent presence. The building's maintenance history shows some significant infrastructure issues, including violations for inadequate hot water supply in Apartment 2A (2022-2024), broken electrical outlet in Apartment 1B (2023), and historical problems with mold in Apartment 2A (2021).

The property has had three violations for failure to file external low pressure inspection reports (2019-2023), though these were ultimately dismissed. Recent years show active compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with no infestations reported between 2021-2024. The Department of Buildings records indicate various permits issued for work related to plumbing and other systems, with the most recent permits dating back to 2018-2019.
