Augrented Insights Report for 1654 Amsterdam Avenue

The 5-story, 8-unit tenement building at 1654 Amsterdam Avenue, owned by Genevieve Outlaw, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over the past five years. Most recently, in January 2025, there was an emergency heat/hot water complaint affecting the entire building, which HPD investigated but found no housing law violations. The building has ongoing safety concerns, with three open violations from May 2024 regarding water leaks affecting both the 4th and 5th story public hall walls, and multiple violations related to fire escape access due to obstructing flower pots on various balcony levels.

Apartment 4A was cited in August 2024 for defective carbon monoxide and smoke detectors. Historical issues include a series of complaints in 2019 regarding various maintenance problems in multiple units, such as mold, wall and ceiling damage, and plumbing issues. There were concerning safety-related complaints in 2020 concerning window guards and fire escapes.

The building experienced a significant plumbing incident in October 2020, though no violations were ultimately issued. More recently, while the building had multiple rodent inspections in 2023-2025 with passing results, there was one April 2025 inspection that noted rat activity. The property has maintained a clean bedbug record for the past five reporting periods, showing no infestations between 2019 and 2024.
