Augrented Insights Report for 2120 Fredrick Douglass Bl

The five-story, nine-unit tenement building at 2120 Frederick Douglass Boulevard in Harlem, owned by Avi Dishi and built in 1900, has experienced several notable incidents over the past five years. Most significantly, between 2020 and 2022, the building faced multiple violations relating to unauthorized commercial use of the first floor, which was improperly converted into a massage parlor ("CAY SPA") with multiple treatment rooms, resulting in several Environmental Control Board violations with penalties totaling over $25,000.

These illegal occupancy issues were ultimately resolved, though the building still carries two active violations from 2019 for failure to file annual boiler inspection reports. The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2023, with no reported infestations, and has passed all rodent inspections conducted between 2022 and 2025, with bait applied in 2022 showing some prior rodent activity.

The building has experienced periodic violations related to bedbug report filings from 2021 to 2023, though these appear to have been administrative in nature rather than indicative of infestations. While the building's recent inspection record shows improvement, with successful rodent inspections and bedbug reporting compliance, the outstanding boiler inspection violations remain a concern from a maintenance perspective.
