Augrented Insights Report for 280 West 119th Street

280 West 119th Street is a 5-story, 9-unit old law tenement building located in Harlem and owned by Princess Palmer. The building has experienced persistent maintenance challenges in recent years, with particular attention needed on heating and pest control. Between November 2023 and January 2024, there were three separate heat and hot water complaints for the entire building, none of which could be inspected due to access issues.

More recently, the building has been undergoing a series of rodent control measures in 2025, with multiple bait applications occurring monthly from February to July 2025, suggesting an ongoing pest management program. The building's infrastructure and unit conditions have raised several concerns, including active violations related to water damage, mold, and other maintenance issues. Notable violations include water leak and mold issues in Apartment 1A (dated August 2021), and various repairs needed in Apartment 4B's kitchen ceiling. The property experienced winter heating system complaints, plumbing issues, and unsanitary conditions in 2022 and 2021, with violations issued for broken flooring, rodent sightings, and mold problems.

Most concerningly, there is an open Department of Buildings violation from April 2023 regarding failure to file the 2022 external low-pressure inspection report. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug reporting compliance between 2022-2024, showing zero infested units during the last three reporting periods, and has undergone regular rodent inspections in 2025, with bait applied multiple times throughout the year. While some violations from previous years have been closed, such as mold issues in Apartment 1A, others remain open as of the latest inspection records, indicating ongoing maintenance challenges. The property has experienced periodic problems with various systems and conditions, including heating/cooling, plumbing, and pest management, suggesting the need for ongoing attention to building maintenance and resident comfort.
