Augrented Insights Report for 119 West 137th Street

The five-story, 10-unit tenement building at 119 West 137th Street in Harlem, owned by Kenneth Morrison, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past two years. Most notably, in April 2025, the building received multiple complaints requiring HPD inspections that could not be completed, covering various issues including plumbing (bathtub/shower), paint/plaster (walls), door/window (door frame), unsanitary conditions (mold), and electrical (outlet/switch) concerns.

These complaints were subsequently addressed through Housing Maintenance Code Complaints in May 2025, including emergency issues related to mold and various maintenance problems. A July 2023 inspection revealed several violations in Apartment 1F, including issues with door gaps, missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and an obstruction of egress from fire escapes with flower pots, all of which were certified as corrected by September 2023. The building has maintained a consistent pattern of addressing pest control issues, with regular rodent inspections showing "Passed" results in 2025 and 2024, though there were instances of rat activity recorded in 2023-2024.

The bedbug reporting history from 2018-2024 shows no documented infestations or eradications. Historical records also indicate a 2019 boiler inspection where the inspector was unable to gain access, and various maintenance violations in 2022 and 2020 related to door frames, bathtubs, and fire escape obstructions. While some issues have been addressed through official inspections and certifications, the pattern of multiple complaints requiring follow-up and the inability of inspectors to complete initial inspections in 2025 suggests ongoing maintenance challenges within the building.
