Augrented Insights Report for 516 West 151st Street

The 7-story, 44-unit Old Law Tenement building at 516 West 151st Street, owned by Allan Heussinger, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, with the most concerning being a June 2025 mold complaint and a water leak with heavy flow in the same month, both resulting in violations. The building has faced persistent heat and hot water problems, particularly during the winter months of 2024-2025, with multiple complaints from late 2024 through early 2025, including a building-wide heat outage in November 2024 and violations related to hot water service in apartments 3E and 7D.

There have been recurring elevator service issues documented between 2023 and 2024, with multiple complaints about lack of alternate service, though most inspections found no violations at the time. The building faces multiple active Department of Buildings (DOB) violations related to failure to file required inspection reports for exterior low pressure systems from 2018 through 2024, and a November 2020 violation regarding immediate hazardous conditions. The property has shown some concerning health and safety patterns, including rodent activity, with several inspections in 2024 showing rat activity and bait applications, though the most recent inspection from July 2025 showed compliance.

While the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations over the past five years, with no reported cases between 2020 and 2025, issues with building systems persist. Recent Housing Maintenance Code violations include problems with heating systems access and hot water supply, and there are multiple historical violations related to building maintenance, including façade and window repairs. The building's management has received several Department of Buildings Environmental Control Board violations between 2018 and 2024, with the most recent regarding expired test tags and maintenance logs from 2024 carrying a penalty of $1,250.
