Augrented Insights Report for 515 West 139th Street

The five-story, 21-unit tenement building at 515 West 139th Street in Hamilton Heights, built in 1910 and currently owned by Christopher Peralta, has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems over the past few years. Between 2023 and early 2024, there were multiple emergency complaints about heat and hot water problems affecting the entire building, with violations issued in January 2024 specifically noting inadequate heat supply to Apartment 2. The building currently has an open HPD complaint from May 2025 regarding a door issue.

Recent inspections in 2025 and August 2024 passed rodent inspections, though there were some failed inspections in 2024, indicating some pest control challenges. The Department of Buildings has issued three active violations as of June 2023 for failure to file low-pressure inspection reports for 2020, 2021, and 2022. The building's history shows consistent attention to regulatory requirements, including successful bedbug reporting with zero infestations reported in the past several cycles from 2019 to 2025.

There have been several smoking-related complaints in 2023-2024, suggesting challenges with adherence to smoke-free policies. Historical records from 2020 indicate fire safety concerns, with violations related to fire escape maintenance and blockage of fireproof passageways. The property has had multiple permits issued between 2018-2019 for various work, though specific details of the work performed are not provided in the data. While the building has maintained basic housing codes regarding bedbugs and passed most inspections, the recurring heat and hot water issues, along with some rodent inspection failures, suggest ongoing maintenance challenges that affect resident comfort.
