Augrented Insights Report for 145 West 135th Street

The 145 West 135th Street building in Harlem is a 6-story, 18-unit New Law Tenement constructed in 1920, currently owned by Scott Jaffee. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, particularly notable in 2021 when multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding both individual apartments and the entire building. The most recent maintenance concern was a plumbing issue in September 2023.

The building underwent several significant maintenance challenges, including a rodent infestation in Apartment 3A in 2022 and multiple elevator service interruptions between 2019-2020, with several ECB violations related to elevator maintenance during that period. Recent inspections in 2025 indicated ongoing rat activity, though previous inspections throughout 2023-2024 showed varying results with treatments applied. The building has had multiple housing maintenance code violations addressed between 2022-2024, including issues with window guards, door functionality, and various maintenance matters.

Three annual bedbug reports submitted between 2022-2024 showed zero infested units, though the property has experienced maintenance issues requiring attention. Recent violations from 2023 included problems with window guards and building maintenance requirements, while earlier investigations from 2019 revealed multiple elevator-related issues requiring resolution. The building's most recent inspection history shows continued monitoring of rodent activity, with bait applications and compliance checks throughout 2023-2025. It should be noted that while many violations have been closed, the persistence of heating issues, elevator concerns, and periodic rodent activity suggests ongoing maintenance challenges.
