Augrented Insights Report for 238 West 122nd Street

The five-story, 11-unit tenement building at 238 West 122nd Street in Harlem, built in 1910 and currently owned by 122 Street Portfolio LLC, has experienced several notable issues in recent years. The building has had recurring plumbing and heating problems, with multiple complaints about water supply issues, toilet malfunctions, and heat/hot water outages between 2023 and 2024, including emergencies in March 2023 and the most recent plumbing issue in February 2024. Safety concerns have also been documented, including a broken/missing window guard in April 2023, though inspections found no violations for this or several other complaints.

The building has faced sanitation challenges, with multiple unsanitary conditions reported, including garbage/recycling storage issues in June 2023 and sewage problems in April 2023. The building's history reveals past concerns with rodent infestations, particularly in Apartment 2A, where violations for mold, mice, and pest issues were documented in 2021. While more recent rodent inspections have shown some rat activity in 2023 and 2024, recent results from May 2025, November 2024, and July 2024 inspections have passed. The building has undergone maintenance work, as evidenced by the correction of fire escape violations in 2021 and the regular filing of bedbug reports showing no infestations since 2020, suggesting improved pest management practices.

The property has maintained compliance with various housing codes, with most violations being promptly addressed and closed, though some issues from 2021 regarding mold and rodent problems in certain apartments remain marked as open. Recent inspections in 2025 have generally shown improvement in building conditions, with multiple passed inspections for rodent activity and no documented bedbug infestations in the past three years. The building's management has responded to most complaints, though access issues were encountered in some heat/hot water complaints in March 2023. The frequency of service requests and complaints has decreased in recent years, suggesting some stabilization of building conditions, though the pattern of plumbing and heating issues remains a significant building characteristic.
