Augrented Insights Report for 233 West 140th Street

233 West 140th Street is a 5-story, 31-unit residential building in Harlem, constructed in 1926 and currently owned by Kenneth Morrison. The building has experienced significant maintenance issues in recent years, with particular concerns around heat and hot water systems. In early 2025, there were multiple complaints (January-March) regarding heat and hot water problems, including several building-wide emergencies that required HPD intervention, though many complaints were filed as duplicates.

Additional maintenance issues emerged in 2025, including concerns about flooring, plumbing, and various apartment conditions. The building has open violations from 2023-2024 related to safety systems, including missing smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in apartment 3F, as well as unresolved pest control issues in apartment 1A involving roaches and mice. The property's history reveals persistent maintenance challenges, including an active boiler violation from 2021 with serious safety concerns (penalties totaling $6,250), and repeated failures to file energy benchmarking reports from 2019-2021.

A significant bedbug infestation occurred in 2020-2021, affecting eight units before eradication. The building's rodent control efforts in 2024 demonstrated ongoing pest management activity, with multiple bait applications recorded throughout the year, though recent inspections in 2025 have shown improvement with passed results. The property has maintained basic safety compliance in recent inspections, though multiple open violations from 2023-2024 suggest continuing maintenance challenges.
