Augrented Insights Report for 205 East 118th Street

205 East 118th Street is a 6-story, 56-unit New Law Tenement building in East Harlem, built in 1900 and currently owned by Matthew Janeczko. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints filed between November 2023 and January 2025, including three emergency complaints for entire building and apartment-specific problems. While most of these complaints were resolved promptly, they represent a significant pattern of temperature control challenges.

The building has also faced pest management issues, with documented rodent sightings in 2023, 2024, and 2025, though recent inspections have passed without violations. A bedbug infestation was reported in late 2024 in one unit, with previous infestations in 2019. The property has active elevator service concerns, with an unresolved complaint filed in May 2025 regarding single device operation and no alternate service, following a similar pattern of complaints and inspections between 2020-2024.

The building has undergone various maintenance investigations, with violations documented in 2022-2023 regarding boiler operation, exterior maintenance, and various interior conditions. The Department of Buildings has recorded multiple inspection passes for rodent control in 2024-2025, though there were some initial compliance failures noted in 2022. Recent permit filings from 2019 indicate some maintenance activity, while numerous environmental control board violations from 2018-2022 related to exterior conditions, including stucco and facade maintenance, have been resolved. The recurring nature of heating, elevator, and pest issues, combined with the age of the building, suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, though many recent complaints have been resolved during inspections.
