Augrented Insights Report for 617 West 141st Street

617 West 141st Street is a 6-story, 42-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1914, currently owned by Jonathan Samet. The building has experienced significant issues in 2025, particularly with heating and hot water systems, as evidenced by multiple HPD complaints in May 2025, and ongoing elevator problems documented in an active complaint from April 2025. The property had substantial damage from a fire in December 2022, impacting the roof and sixth floor, which led to multiple active violations in 2023-2024 regarding structural integrity, emergency repairs, and fire safety systems.

Recent inspections show persistent maintenance challenges, including water leaks, mold, and various plumbing issues documented between May and June 2025. The building's maintenance history reveals ongoing infrastructure and safety concerns. In 2024, two active ECB violations were issued regarding exterior facade maintenance and failure to file acceptable facade reports, with associated penalties totaling $7,530.

The property has a documented history of rodent activity, with multiple inspections showing evidence of rat presence between 2023 and 2025. Previous years showed recurring issues with bedbug infestations, though recent filings from 2023-2024 indicate no current infestations. The building has also faced several safety-related violations in recent years, including emergency improvements needed for fire escapes and various plumbing and sanitary issues that required attention between 2022 and 2025.
