Augrented Insights Report for 519 West 147th Street

The 21-unit, 5-story New Law Tenement building at 519 West 147th Street, owned by Alex Polanco and constructed in 1930, has experienced significant maintenance challenges, particularly regarding heating systems. Between January and April 2025, there were multiple complaints about heat and hot water issues, with at least two instances involving the entire building and several apartment-specific complaints, some requiring HPD inspections that revealed violations. The building also underwent an extensive HPD inspection in October 2024 that identified multiple violations in apartment 54, including pest infestations (roaches and mice), problems with plaster surfaces, bathroom fixtures, and kitchen flooring.

The building's heating infrastructure has been consistently problematic, with emergency complaints regarding both building-wide and apartment-specific heat issues continuing into 2025. The property has a history of maintenance violations and complaints dating back to 2020, including multiple citations for work without permits, illegal conversions, and electrical wiring issues. Notably, there was a concerning pattern of unresolved violations in 2020 regarding failure to certify correction of immediately hazardous conditions, though these were eventually dismissed by 2021.

More recently, rodent activity has been a persistent issue, with multiple inspections in 2023 showing rat activity, though the most recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 resulted in passing grades. The building's most recent housing maintenance code violation inspections as of June 2025 include an open complaint regarding an electric/gas range. Despite these challenges, the property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases between 2019 and 2025.
