Augrented Insights Report for 2070 8th Avenue

2070 8th Avenue is a 7-story, 16-unit old law tenement building in Harlem, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Howard Lev. The building has experienced persistent elevator issues, with open complaints regarding maintenance and no alternate service dating back to 2025, suggesting ongoing accessibility concerns for residents.

Plumbing and water supply problems have been recurring, with multiple complaints in 2024-2025, including heavy water flow and sink issues that required emergency attention. The building also faced significant heat and hot water supply problems in early 2019, resulting in multiple complaints about these essential services affecting the entire building. Recent inspections and maintenance activities indicate ongoing challenges with building systems, including three open Housing Maintenance Code complaints as of June 2025 related to elevator maintenance, bell/intercom systems, and cabinet issues.

The building has an active pest management program, with regular rodent baiting reported throughout 2024-2025, though these measures indicate ongoing rodent activity as evidenced by multiple "Rat Activity" inspections. While the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations over the past seven reporting periods (2019-2025), there are several open violations from 2019 related to an apartment's heat, hot water, and plaster conditions that remain unresolved according to available data. The building's facade and safety compliance history shows attention to exterior maintenance needs, though several active violations related to facade maintenance and elevator service support systems are currently open as of 2025.
