Augrented Insights Report for 353 West 118th Street

353 West 118th Street in Harlem is a 7-story, 21-unit Old Law tenement building constructed in 1901, currently owned by Paul Moore. The building is experiencing ongoing heating and hot water issues, with multiple complaints filed in early 2025 (January-April) indicating building-wide problems, though HPD has frequently been unable to gain access for inspections. The Building Maintenance Code Violations list shows several open issues from 2024-2025, including problems in Apartments 5A and 1C related to doors, windows, cabinets, plaster surfaces, lighting, and water leaks. A pest inspection in June 2024 documented a roach infestation in Apartment 2C.

The property has a concerning history of heating system problems, with multiple emergency complaints filed throughout 2025, most of which have been closed with no access gained for inspection. The building was subject to several Department of Buildings (DOB) violations in early 2024 regarding construction debris blocking egress paths, with associated penalties totaling over $6,000. Current open violations as of 2024 include issues with self-closing doors in Apartment 5B and various maintenance needs in Apartments 1C and 5A. Multiple rodent inspections between 2022 and 2025 show repeated rat activity, indicating ongoing pest control challenges.

While heating system issues appear to be a persistent problem, other maintenance concerns have been relatively stable, with various work orders and violations being addressed over time. The building has complied with bedbug reporting requirements in 2020-2021 and 2019-2020, showing no documented infestations. The most recent complaint regarding heating issues was filed in April 2025 and shows the property management's continued difficulty in maintaining basic services. The building's age and classification as an Old Law tenement suggest it may require ongoing maintenance and attention to keep systems functioning properly, though the exact nature and frequency of such issues appear to vary.
