Augrented Insights Report for 2505 Adam C Powell Blvd

The 2505 Adam C Powell Blvd building, owned by Kevin Newkirk, is a 6-story, 16-unit New Law tenement constructed in 1910 located in Harlem. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent years, with the most current complaint as of February 2025 regarding bell/buzzer/intercom problems that remains open.

Between 2022 and 2023, the property had multiple complaints about pests, ventilation systems, plumbing issues, and mold, though most of these complaints were closed without violations being issued. More concerning are the various open housing maintenance code violations from 2023-2024, including issues with windows, safety features, and missing smoke/carbon monoxide detectors in apartment 3C. The building's facade and structural integrity have also been a significant concern, with multiple Department of Buildings (DOB) violations between 2018 and 2024 related to exterior maintenance, including problems with the roof cornice, brick spalling, and failure to submit required inspection reports.

Most recently, in 2024, violations were issued for the failure to comply with previous orders regarding the building's facade conditions, resulting in penalties totaling $62,500. The building has passed recent rodent inspections in 2025 and maintained a bedbug-free status according to the 2025 reporting period, though there were previous infestations noted in 2021. While some improvements have been made, as evidenced by recent inspections passing, the building still has numerous active violations and maintenance issues that require attention, particularly regarding the facade and safety systems.
