Augrented Insights Report for 234 West 135th Street

The 5-story, 29-unit building at 234 West 135th Street in Harlem, owned by Michael Aryeh, has experienced significant maintenance challenges in recent months. As of May 2025, there are open complaints regarding water leaks (both heavy flow and damp spots) and flooring issues in the building.

The property has a concerning history of heating and plumbing problems, with multiple complaints about heat/hot water issues in April-May 2025, including building-wide and apartment-specific problems. Additionally, the building has faced rodent infestation issues, with multiple rodent activity reports from 2023-2025, though some inspections have shown passing results. The building's maintenance record shows persistent issues requiring attention, particularly in apartment 5A, which has multiple open violations from November 2024 related to carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, door frame repairs, plaster surfaces, roof leaks, and pest control.

There are also questions about building safety features, including violations concerning window guards from April 2025. The property has three active Department of Buildings violations regarding the failure to file external low pressure inspections for 2019-2020, and there were two ECB violations from 2019 related to failure to post tenant protection notices. While there have been no bedbug complaints reported since 2022, the building's overall maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with property upkeep and habitability.
