Augrented Insights Report for 271 West 146th Street

271 West 146th Street is a 5-story, 20-unit Old Law Tenement building in Harlem, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Anabel Morales. The property has experienced persistent maintenance issues in recent years, with particular attention required for plumbing and water-related problems. Most notably, between April and June 2025, there have been multiple reports of water leaks, including both heavy flow and slow leaks, with at least one inspection attempt (April 2025) unable to gain access for proper evaluation.

Inspection records indicate ongoing concerns with heat and hot water availability, as evidenced by multiple service requests in 2025 and 2024, though some of these complaints were closed without access being granted for inspection. The building also has several open Housing Maintenance Code violations as of November 2024, including issues with water leaks and mold in multiple apartments (notably apartments 6, 12, and 16), as well as concerns regarding carbon monoxide detectors and lead paint hazards. The property's maintenance history shows a pattern of access issues during inspections, with multiple complaints in 2025 (including water leaks and heat complaints) noted as open due to inspection access problems.

There have been various other maintenance concerns documented, including unsanitary conditions (garbage storage and mold), plumbing issues, and rodent activity. The building's owners have faced several complaints regarding potential illegal hotel operations and certificate of occupancy violations between 2019 and 2023, though many of these complaints were either unsubstantiated or access was denied for inspection. Recent inspections in 2025 have shown passing results for rodent inspections, though previous inspections in late 2023 and early 2024 indicated rodent activity. The building has also experienced some structural and safety issues, as evidenced by multiple emergency complaints in 2025 regarding water leaks, door/window problems, and safety equipment like smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors.
