Augrented Insights Report for 102 West 137th Street

The 6-story converted New Law tenement at 102 West 137th Street in Harlem, owned by William Bolinger and built in 1910, is currently facing multiple maintenance challenges as of July 2025. Most notably, there are open complaints from March 2025 regarding heat and hot water issues, along with recurring problems with mold formation, as evidenced by multiple Health Department interventions.

The building has received numerous Housing Maintenance Code complaints and violations, particularly affecting Apartment 5B, where issues include defective floor tiles, door problems, water leaks, and various cabinet and repair needs identified during a November 2024 inspection. A concerning pattern of electrical and plumbing issues has been documented in 2025, with multiple violations issued for lighting, sink, and other related problems.

The building's infrastructure has faced significant challenges, including a boiler-related ECB violation from 2022 regarding non-operational heating systems, though bedbug reports indicate no infestations during the last annual reporting period. Recent rodent inspections throughout 2024-2025 have shown persistent rat activity, with multiple bait applications and compliance failures noted. The property has also faced one illegal conversion complaint in 2024, though the inspector was unable to gain access for verification.
