Augrented Insights Report for 211 West 144th Street

The 6-story, 19-unit building at 211 West 144th Street in Harlem, built in 1940 and owned by Lorenzo Fernandez, has experienced multiple maintenance issues in 2025. Most notably, there was a heat and hot water outage affecting the entire building in January 2025, and multiple plumbing problems including sink and toilet issues with associated violations. Additional concerns this year include a mold problem, cabinet issues, paint/plaster problems, intercom system malfunction, and some window frame concerns - though many of these complaints were found not to violate housing laws upon inspection.

Notable violations from 2024 include an open Class C violation regarding a defective self-closing fire-rated door near the basement, and plumbing issues in apartment 6C. There are also two active DOB violations from 2019-2023 for failure to file boiler inspections. Rodent activity has been a persistent issue, with multiple inspections in 2023-2025 showing "Rat Activity," though the most recent inspection in March 2025 passed.

The building has maintained a clean record regarding bed bug infestations, with no reported cases between 2021 and 2024. Recent infrastructure issues include water leak problems and defective fire retardant material in the 6th-story public hall. The current open complaint regarding an appliance (refrigerator) issue from January 2025 remains unresolved. While the property has had multiple violations and maintenance issues, there have been no reports of bed bug problems since 2021, though rodent control efforts have had mixed results.
