Augrented Insights Report for 131 Central Park North

131 Central Park North, a 6-story New Law Tenement built in 1920 with 44 units, has experienced persistent building maintenance issues in recent years. The most pressing concern has been recurring heat and hot water problems, with multiple emergency complaints recorded between late 2023 and 2025, though in many cases, inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the conditions. The building has also faced challenges with rodent activity, as evidenced by multiple inspections throughout 2024-2025 showing consistent rat presence, with recent inspections in 2025 confirming rat activity. The property has a history of maintenance violations and complaints that suggest significant infrastructure concerns.

These include several electrical wiring issues (2019-2021), ventilation system problems (2024), and combined plumbing and heating system difficulties. In 2024, there were multiple complaints about the building's general conditions, including requests for inspection that were denied access. The Department of Buildings has documented concerns regarding potential illegal conversions and work without proper permits, though inspections sometimes resulted in no violations being found. Notably, there were several Housing Maintenance Code violations issued in 2021 for Apartment 3A, covering various interior maintenance issues including plumbing, electrical, and pest control problems, though these were subsequently certified as corrected.

The building's systems have shown ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly with the elevator system (2021) and various life safety requirements. While the property has maintained an active bedbug monitoring program with no reported infestations since 2021, the persistent issues with heat/hot water systems, rat activity, and periodic electrical and plumbing problems suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. Recent inspections (2024-2025) have mostly focused on heat/hot water and rodent-related issues, with some general maintenance concerns. The building's most recent Bedbug Reporting filings from 2024 show no active infestations, and violations regarding bedbug reporting requirements were last documented in 2024.
