Augrented Insights Report for 100 West 138th Street

**100 West 138th Street - Building Condition Summary (July 2025)** This 5-story, 17-unit residential building in Harlem, owned by Jay Newhouse and built in 1910, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues in recent years. As of March 2025, there are three open complaints with HPD regarding the building's bell/buzzer/intercom system, plumbing (bathtub/shower), and flooring issues. The building has faced multiple heat and hot water problems in early 2025, with violations issued in January. In December 2024, violations were documented for apartment 4B regarding defective flooring and bathroom tiles.

The building's history shows persistent infrastructure concerns, including three open violations from December 2024 related to floor conditions in 4B. The property has documented rodent activity in 2024-2025, with multiple baiting interventions and two compliance inspections showing "Rat Activity" in January and October 2024. An Environmental Control Board violation from 2020 suggests previous occupancy and permit issues. The building underwent illegal conversion investigations in 2022, though inspectors were unable to gain access for verification.

Recent bedbug reports (2022-2024) indicate zero incidents of infestation, and the building's hot water system received attention with multiple complaints and violations issued between 2024-2025. In 2024, various violations were identified concerning window guards, peeling paint, and door functionality, though most of these have since been closed. The building's maintenance record shows regular inspections and prompt responses to violations, with many issues being addressed through penalties and corrections. The property has three open HPD complaints as of March 2025, while several past violations have been resolved or dismissed, including three "failure to file" violations from 2023-2024 related to external low-pressure inspections. Recent plumbing issues in 2024-2025 suggest ongoing infrastructure challenges that may affect resident comfort and building safety.
