Augrented Insights Report for 158 West 132nd Street

The three-story, four-unit building at 158 West 132nd Street in Harlem, owned by Sherri Culpepper, has experienced numerous maintenance issues and regulatory violations since 2020. Recent complaints from March 2025 primarily involve plumbing problems, including issues with sinks, water supply, and toilets, along with a missing sign, though not all inspection attempts were successful. Between July 2024 and 2025, the building faced multiple plumbing and door-related complaints, with at least one plumbing violation cited in 2025.

Significant open violations from 2024 include safety concerns in Apartment B regarding carbon monoxide detector issues, smoke detector maintenance, and the presence of excessive storage material. The building's Certificate of Occupancy violations, dating back to 2024, indicate unauthorized unit modifications, while there are also active Building Department violations related to low-pressure inspection filings from 2019 to 2023. The property has a documented history of safety and code compliance issues, including a 2024 Environmental Control Board violation$12,500 penalty for unauthorized basement kitchen modifications and occupancy contrary to Certificate of Occupancy records.

Multiple Department of Buildings complaints suggest ongoing concerns about unauthorized work and occupancy changes, particularly during 2020-2024. Rodent inspections show variable results, with rat activity noted in 2023, though recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 have passed. The building's bedbug reports since 2019 show no documented infestations during that period. The frequency and nature of complaints, particularly regarding safety systems and unauthorized modifications, indicate persistent property management challenges, with several violations remaining open as of 2025.
