Augrented Insights Report for 532 West 145th Street

The 6-story, 37-unit tenement building at 532 West 145th Street in Hamilton Heights, owned by Tim Ziss and constructed in 1905, has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most concerning are the safety violations, including multiple instances of broken or missing window guards (most recently reported in June 2025), and historical problems with elevator safety features between 2018-2025. The building has persistent water-related issues, as evidenced by open violations from 2022-2023 regarding roof leaks in the 6th-story public hall, and multiple complaints about flooring and plumbing problems, including a 2025 mold issue and repeated reports of plumbing system failures (bathtub, toilet, radiator) throughout 2025.

Recent inspections have shown ongoing rodent activity, with multiple bait applications between 2023-2024, though some inspections passed. The building's heating system has also faced scrutiny, with several heat/hot water complaints in early 2025, though most were resolved promptly. The property has a mixed record regarding building systems maintenance, particularly concerning elevator safety features which have been a recurring source of violations and fines, with active penalties of $1,250 each for brake monitor inoperativity and door lock monitoring issues as of 2023.

While the building has filed regular bedbug reports showing minimal activity (only one documented case in 2019), recent inspections have indicated ongoing infrastructure maintenance challenges. The building's management has received violations for not properly addressing immediately hazardous conditions in a timely manner, and there are several active cases regarding the failure to file required safety documentation, including an annual bedbug report and pressure inspection. Despite these numerous issues, there have been periods of prompt response to complaints, as seen in early 2025 with multiple complaints being addressed within days, though some inspection requests resulted in no access being granted to HPD inspectors.
