Augrented Insights Report for 126 West 139th Street

The five-story New Law Tenement at 126 West 139th Street in Harlem, built in 1910 and owned by Keyetta Jones, comprises 15 units and has experienced several notable maintenance issues in recent years, particularly during 2023-2024. Most concerning is the building's persistent rodent problem, with multiple inspections showing rat activity between 2022 and 2024, though recent inspections in 2025 and late 2024 passed without issues. The building has also faced recurring electrical and heating system challenges, with complaints about power outages, no lighting, and heating issues affecting the entire building reported in 2022 and 2019, respectively.

A significant cluster of complaints emerged in May 2023, including issues with cooking gas, electrical wiring, various appliance problems, and ceiling plaster/paint issues - though no violations were ultimately issued following HPD inspections. The building currently has open Code violations from May 2023 affecting multiple apartments (1A, 2B, 4A, and 5A) regarding various maintenance issues including defective plaster and paint surfaces, while several previous violations related to gas supply and public hallway maintenance have been closed. The property appears to have maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs since 2019, with no infestations reported in the past five years.

A Local Law 188/17 Compliance inspection in late 2023 was noted as unable to gain access, though this specific inspection may not directly impact tenant living conditions. The building's only recent safety concern related to egress was investigated in 2025 and found not to warrant any violations. While the property has faced multiple maintenance challenges over the years, particularly related to building systems and pest control, the situation appears to have stabilized somewhat in 2024-2025, with most recent inspections passing without major issues.
