Augrented Insights Report for 137 West 137th Street

The 56-unit, 6-story building at 137 West 137th Street in Harlem, owned by Jonathan Ramirez and constructed in 1930, has experienced numerous maintenance and habitability issues over the past year. As of July 2025, there are two active 311 complaints regarding unsanitary conditions related to pests and an appliance issue with a refrigerator. Between late 2024 and early 2025, there were multiple heat and hot water complaints, with some resolved issues returning shortly thereafter.

The building has a documented history of rodent problems, with rodent activity reports in 2023-2024, though recent inspections in 2025 have passed. Recent maintenance violations from late 2024 primarily involve safety equipment deficiencies in apartment 5G, including problems with smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and self-closing doors. The building's management addressed several issues in late 2024, including a ventilation system problem and a mold condition.

There was also a concerning period in mid-2023 with multiple complaints regarding building shaking and structural concerns, though these were ultimately closed without violation. The building has a history of bedbug problems, with varying numbers of affected units reported between 2019 and 2024, though recent filings show reduced infestation rates. An active violation from 2021 regarding energy efficiency score display requirements remains open.
