Augrented Insights Report for 137 West 141st Street

The 48-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement building at 137 West 141st Street in Harlem, owned by Shlome Reifer and constructed in 1910, has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most concerning are the recent electrical problems: three violations were recorded in May 2025 related to wiring, outlet/switch issues, and paint/plaster problems, with one of the electrical violations classified as an emergency. The building has significant ongoing pest problems, with multiple inspections in 2024-2025 showing rat activity and previous violations for rodent infestations in multiple apartments.

Apartment 60 had documented pest infestations (roaches and mice) in late 2024, along with issues with plaster surfaces and self-closing doors. Other notable violations include safety concerns with broken window guards (three complaints in May 2025), unsanitary conditions, and construction-related dust issues. The building has a history of elevator problems, with violations noted in 2023-2024 regarding emergency service, phone operation, and weight capacity issues, though these were generally resolved without penalties.

Multiple housing maintenance code violations have been recorded, including water leaks, flooring issues, and problems with heating systems. The property has also faced scrutiny for unauthorized work, with several complaints in 2024-2025 regarding work without permits and after-hours work, though inspections typically found no violations. Bedbug reporting from 2019-2024 shows occasional infestations, though recent reports indicate no current issues. The building's condition has resulted in multiple active Environmental Control Board violations, including an active penalty regarding illegal lock hardware on bedroom doors from 2024, and a resolved violation from 2023 regarding elevator operation.
