Augrented Insights Report for 642 St Nicholas Avenue

642 St Nicholas Avenue, a 7-story, 94-unit residential building constructed in 2002 and currently owned by 141 Nicholas Hdfc, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past two years. Most notably, there have been multiple complaints regarding unsanitary conditions, including a recent 2025 complaint about mold (currently listed as an open violation) and a pest infestation in apartment 206 that was documented and resolved in 2024. The building has also faced challenges with basic services, as evidenced by a heat/hot water complaint in February 2025 that HPD could not investigate due to lack of access, and a water leak complaint in mid-2024.

Multiple apartments have required painting and plaster work, with several units (305, 310, and 504) receiving violations in 2024 for needing to be repainted with light-colored paint to comply with housing maintenance codes. The building's infrastructure has shown some concerning patterns, including recurring issues with the elevator system, as noted in both 2024 and 2025 complaints (though investigations found no current violations). A significant number of rodent inspections between 2023 and 2025 indicated persistent rat activity, despite some passing compliance inspections and bait applications.

The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations in recent years, with zero cases reported in the past five filing periods. Building management has had some lapses in timely compliance with inspection requirements, including failures to file FISP technical reports in 2019 and 2024, though both violations were eventually dismissed. While many individual complaints have been resolved through inspections, the pattern of repeated issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges within the building.
