Augrented Insights Report for 217 West 135th Street

The 16-unit, 5-story tenement building at 217 West 135th Street in Harlem, owned by New Parque Inc, has a 115-year history with several significant events affecting resident quality of life. Most recently, in 2025, there have been multiple complaints regarding paint and plaster issues with windows and doors, though no violations were issued.

April 2025 saw a concerning indoor air quality complaint regarding chemical vapors, and there are active concerns about the building's boiler inspection compliance, with a $3,125 penalty imposed in June 2024 for failure to file required annual boiler inspection reports. The building has experienced multiple maintenance issues over the past two years, including heating system problems (November 2024), water leaks (December 2023), and various door/window maintenance needs. A particularly concerning pattern emerged in late 2024 through early 2025, with a significant cluster of violations found in apartment 2A, including issues with window guards, smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and various maintenance needs.

The building has also experienced structural concerns, with a June 2025 violation noting extensive fire, water, and smoke damage in multiple units (2D, 3D, 4D, and 5D) with broken windows and damaged walls. Multiple complaints about heating systems and water supply issues suggest ongoing infrastructure challenges. While there have been no reports of bedbug infestations in recent years, rodent inspections show variable results, with some initial inspections indicating rat activity in 2025, though compliance inspections generally pass.
