Augrented Insights Report for 169 Edgecombe Avenue

169 Edgecombe Avenue is a 5-story, 20-unit New Law Tenement building located in Harlem, built in 1910 and currently owned by Herminio Torres. The building has experienced recurring safety and maintenance issues in recent years, with particular concerns emerging around October 2024 when both smoke and carbon monoxide detector violations were reported, though inspectors were unable to gain access for proper evaluation.

The property has also faced various maintenance challenges, including water leak issues (notably from October 2023 that remains in progress), ceiling paint/plaster problems, and previous mold concerns. Historical data indicates the building had significant pest issues in early 2020, particularly in unit 4A, though no bedbug infestations have been reported in the subsequent years from 2020 through 2024. The building has undergone regular rodent inspections, with most recent ones in 2025 and late 2024 passing successfully, following an initial failed inspection in March 2024.

The property has experienced heat and hot water emergencies in both 2021 and 2023, though these issues appear to have been addressed. Multiple housing maintenance complaints have been filed over the years, with most being investigated and closed without violations. While the building has maintained a compliance record for bedbug reporting requirements since 2020, with zero infested units reported, the recent safety concerns regarding smoke and carbon monoxide detectors represent the most pressing current issues.
