Augrented Insights Report for 511 West 142nd Street

The 7-unit building at 511 West 142nd Street in Hamilton Heights, owned by Roland Jones, is a 3-story former Class B building constructed in 1926. The property has experienced several recurring maintenance issues, most notably a recent pattern of unsanitary conditions related to garbage/recycling storage, with two open complaints filed in March 2025.

In January 2022, multiple complaints were filed regarding lack of heat/hot water throughout the building, though access issues prevented HPD from completing their inspections. The building has a history of electrical concerns, with two closed complaints from August 2024 related to defective/exposed wiring and a significant violation regarding missing grounding equipment that resulted in a $4,800 penalty. The property has faced several regulatory challenges over the years, including multiple violations for failure to file annual boiler inspections and external low-pressure inspections (2023 violations still active), and a 2020 violation for unpermitted boiler installation work.

However, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with all annual reports from 2020 to 2024 showing zero infested units and successful eradication efforts in all cases. Recent rodent inspections (2016-2025) have consistently passed, indicating effective pest management. While the building has had various violations and maintenance issues, recent records show improved compliance with bedbug reporting and pest control requirements, though ongoing concerns about garbage storage and heating systems remain notable points of attention.
