Augrented Insights Report for 547 West 147th Street

The 6-story, 30-unit New Law Tenement building at 547 West 147th Street in Hamilton Heights, owned by Jose Fernandez and constructed in 1940, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past few years. Most notably, there has been a persistent problem with cooking gas supply, with multiple complaints between June and October 2023, resulting in several Housing Maintenance Code violations and emergency complaints. Additionally, the building faced rodent control challenges, with a DOHMH inspection in October 2023 confirming violations, though subsequent rodent inspections in 2025 showed compliance.

More recently, in March 2024, there was a complaint regarding construction dust affecting indoor air quality, though this was addressed with an advisory to the property management. The building has a significant history of violations and infrastructure concerns, particularly related to security and gas systems. Active violations from 2023 include inadequate gas supply to kitchen fixtures in apartments D4, E1, and A5.

Historical records show recurring issues with building entrance security systems, including an open violation from 2021 regarding an illegal electromagnetic locking device and several violations concerning building entrance door repairs. The property has also faced scrutiny under Local Law 188/17 with multiple inspections in 2024, though most resulted in "No Violation Warranted" findings. While the building has maintained a relatively clean record regarding bedbug infestations in recent years, with only one report of infestation in 2022, it is worth noting that the building has shown a pattern of complaints and violations that suggest ongoing maintenance and infrastructure challenges. The most recent environmental violation from 2024 regarding facade safety reporting remains active, with a penalty imposed.
