Augrented Insights Report for 471 Lenox Avenue

The 8-unit, 5-story building at 471 Lenox Avenue in Harlem, built in 1910 and currently owned by David Simhaee, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years, with particular attention needed to water and pest management systems. The property has documented multiple pest-related complaints between 2022 and 2024, with the most recent unsanitary condition complaint regarding pests filed in June 2024.

There were two water-related incidents in March 2022 involving both heavy and slow leaks, and there has been a consistent pattern of heat and hot water complaints, including an emergency report in October 2022 when access to inspect the issues was denied. The building has undergone several inspections and has generally maintained compliance with rodent control requirements, passing multiple inspections from 2017 through 2025. A concerning set of maintenance violations was documented in October 2022 for Apartment 4S, including issues with plumbing fixtures, kitchen appliances, and both ceiling and wall plaster/paint conditions.

While the building has regularly filed bedbug reports from 2020 through 2024 with no infestations recorded, the frequency of pest-related complaints suggests ongoing management challenges. More recent complaints from 2025 regarding paint/plaster issues and unsanitary conditions in June 2025 indicate that some maintenance challenges persist. However, the building has also shown improvements, with most inspection results showing proper remediation of previously reported conditions, including recent successful rodent inspections indicating effective pest control measures.
