Augrented Insights Report for 936 Amsterdam Avenue

The 12-unit, 5-story Old Law Tenement at 936 Amsterdam Avenue in Manhattan's Upper West Side, built in 1925 and currently owned by Victor Arcos, has experienced several significant incidents affecting tenant comfort and safety. Most notably, in March 2023, there was a period of concerning indoor air quality issues, including ventilation problems and chemical odors, with multiple related complaints still in progress into 2024.

The building experienced a fire-related incident in March 2023 that affected multiple units and required emergency responses, including inspections revealing fire damage in Apartments 1, 6, 7, and issues with fire escapes and doors. The property has a documented history of heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints between 2019 and 2022, though these appear to have been addressed.

Recent inspections in 2024 have revealed several open violations requiring attention, including issues with a window frame in Apartment 4, self-closing fire doors in the cellar, and various maintenance needs throughout the building. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of both emergency and non-emergency repair needs, with Housing Maintenance Code Complaints in 2024 relating to doors, windows, walls, and a fire escape. However, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in the past several years, and recent rodent inspections have consistently passed, indicating effective pest management protocols.
