Augrented Insights Report for 535 West 148th Street

The three-story, seven-unit building at 535 West 148th Street in Hamilton Heights, owned by Leighton Weston and constructed in 1920, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years. Most notably, in late 2020, the building faced multiple problems including unsanitary conditions with pests, heating and hot water issues, and various maintenance concerns involving walls, floors, and stairs - all of which resulted in violations being issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

A concerning pattern of maintenance challenges continued into 2021, with open complaints regarding plumbing issues, flooring problems, wall plaster concerns, mold, and appliance issues all recorded in February 2021. Recent inspections in May 2024 revealed multiple violations related to building safety and maintenance, including problems with self-closing doors in multiple locations (including fire doors), stair tread repairs, and ceiling paint requirements in the cellar. The building's maintenance history shows a mix of resolved and active violations, including a current active violation from September 2024 regarding the failure to file 2023 external low-pressure inspection documentation.

While the building experienced various safety and maintenance issues in 2020-2021, more recent records from 2023-2025 show consistent passing inspections for rodent control, with no reported bedbug infestations in recent years. Multiple tenant safety inspections in late 2020-2021 resulted in various violations, including failure to file required tenant protection plans and issues with fire stopping and housekeeping. The building has generally demonstrated compliance with rodent control requirements, with inspections in 2023-2025 showing passed status, though there were indications of rodent activity in early 2022.
