Augrented Insights Report for 503 West 144th Street

The three-story, seven-unit building at 503 West 144th Street in Hamilton Heights, owned by Ming Cheung, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues over the past few years. Most notably, there was a construction period from 2021-2024 that generated multiple complaints, particularly regarding construction safety compliance and job site maintenance, with violations issued to Honor Construction regarding improperly maintained job site fences in both 2023 and 2021, though these were subsequently resolved.

In 2022, there was a documented incident of dust from construction affecting indoor air quality, and the building received two violations in 2022-2024 for failure to file the required external low-pressure inspection reports, though these were later dismissed. The building has maintained a clear record of pest management, with no reported bedbug infestations or eradications in the past three reporting periods (2022-2025) and consistent rodent inspection passes throughout 2022-2025, with only one instance of rat activity noted in February 2022.

Historical violations from 2018-2024 show various maintenance issues, including inadequate exterior lighting at the front entrance in 2018 (since resolved) and annual bedbug report filing requirements not being met in 2021-2022 (though these violations were closed). The building has also consistently passed rodent inspections in 2022-2025, though an initial rat activity notice was issued in February 2022 during one of the inspections.
