Augrented Insights Report for 502 West 151st Street

The 6-story, 36-unit building at 502 West 151st Street, owned by Ruben Rivera and built in 1920, has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there are current open complaints (as of June 2025) regarding doors, window frames, and electrical outlets, with similar issues having previously been reported in May 2025. The building has grappled with persistent pest problems, particularly rodents, with multiple inspections showing rat activity between 2024 and 2025, though a recent July 2025 inspection passed.

Apartment 3E has been the focus of multiple violations, including issues with lead paint, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and water leaks, though these violations were marked as closed following required corrections. The elevator system has been a recurring concern, with multiple complaints between 2019 and 2023 regarding single device operation and safety features, though inspections generally found no violations. The building's maintenance record shows a pattern of inspection access issues, where HPD inspectors were unable to conduct required inspections, resulting in some complaints being closed without resolution. Recent building filings indicate no bedbug infestations in the past five reporting periods, though there was one case in 2019 that was successfully eradicated.

The property's automated systems and compliance with safety regulations have been regularly checked, with various HVAC and plumbing systems showing normal operation in recent inspections. The building has also undergone routine inspections for environmental compliance, with no significant violations noted in recent years. However, the presence of multiple open complaints as of mid-2025 regarding doors, windows, and electrical systems suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. The most recent rodent inspection marked "passed" in July 2025 offers some indication of improved conditions, though this follows a previous pattern of "rat activity" findings between 2024 and 2025.
