Augrented Insights Report for 509 West 140th Street

509 West 140th Street is a 5-story, 15-unit residential building located in Hamilton Heights, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Andrea Filpo. The property has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent years, with particular concern around plumbing systems, as evidenced by multiple violations and complaints between 2024 and 2025, including problems with bathtubs/showers and water supply systems. A significant cluster of violations was documented in June 2024, affecting walls, flooring, and other maintenance matters.

The building currently has open violations related to low-pressure inspection filings between 2018-2023, and a September 2024 violation for failure to file an annual boiler inspection report remains active. The property has a documented history of rodent activity, with multiple inspections between 2023-2025 showing consistent rat presence, though bait was applied during several of these inspections. Recent plumbing and maintenance complaints from May 2025 detail issues with water supply systems, sinks, and unsanitary conditions involving pests.

The building's first-floor apartment 1B has been a particular focus of violations, with documented issues including unsafe electrical wiring, plumbing problems, and various repair needs. The most recent 311 service requests from mid-2024 included violations for walls and flooring, though some other complaints resulted in no violations being found. While the building has maintained a zero infestation record for bedbugs over the past four years, the persistent rodent issues and current open violations related to safety inspections suggest ongoing building maintenance challenges.
