Augrented Insights Report for 254 West 154th Street

254 West 154th Street, a 6-story, 28-unit former New Law Tenement built in 1920 in Harlem, is currently facing significant maintenance challenges under the ownership of Malcolm Punter. The building has experienced persistent pest-related issues in 2025, with multiple 311 complaints and Housing Maintenance Code complaints focusing on unsanitary conditions and pests, leading to multiple violations being issued between April and June 2025.

There are also concerning violations related to physical infrastructure, including problems with doors, windows, and flooring that were documented in May 2025. The building has an active pattern of elevator maintenance violations dating back to 2020, with multiple open violations regarding door lock monitoring, inspection requirements, and operational issues. Recent inspections in 2024-2025 have continued to reveal problems with elevator safety systems, though some older violations from 2020-2023 have been resolved.

Apartment 4E was specifically cited in a November 2024 inspection for multiple window balance issues, pest infestation, and water leak problems.
