Augrented Insights Report for 344 East 120th Street

344 East 120th Street is a three-story, three-unit (old law tenement) residential building located in East Harlem, built in 1899 and currently owned by Jehanara Nizam. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues over recent years, with the most significant problems occurring in late 2024, including complaints about heat/hot water, plumbing issues in the bathtub/shower, and pest infestations, all of which required emergency responses from HPD. A previous cluster of complaints in 2023 involved problems with the fire escape, electrical outlets, and pest issues, some of which resulted in violations being issued.

The basement unit (Apartment 1) has been particularly problematic, facing multiple violations related to water leaks, rodent infestations, and various maintenance issues documented between 2022-2024. The building's history includes serious safety concerns from 2019 regarding illegal conversions and inadequate fire safety measures, which resulted in several Environmental Control Board violations, though these were resolved with penalties. More recent inspections and reports, including the most recent bedbug filings from 2025, indicate there are currently no active pest or bedbug issues in the building.

The property has passed recent rodent inspections in 2025 and 2024, though there were multiple instances of rat activity documented between 2022-2024 before these recent improvements. Building violations from 2022-2023 primarily focused on maintenance issues, including problems with water leaks, plaster surfaces, and kitchen conditions in the basement apartment. While recent inspections suggest some improvement in building conditions, the property has experienced ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly in the basement unit, with historical issues related to fire safety and unauthorized use of residential space. The building's age and history of maintenance issues suggest that while some improvements have been made, regular monitoring of building conditions remains important.
