Augrented Insights Report for 684 Riverside Drive

Located at 684 Riverside Drive in Hamilton Heights, this 37-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement building was constructed in 1919 and is currently owned by Rachel Phipps. The property has experienced recurring heating system issues, with similar heat/hot water complaints recorded in 2025 and 2024, though these were resolved upon HPD verification.

Multiple building maintenance and safety concerns emerged between 2023-2025, including three Department of Buildings inspections in early 2025 documenting electrical wiring problems, and an active violation from March 2024 regarding heating system area access. The building has faced significant infrastructure challenges, as evidenced by current open violations related to electrical circuits in the kitchen, old engineering reports, and multiple active rodent activity reports in 2024-2025, despite previous baiting efforts. The property has exhibited patterns of moisture-related issues, with past complaints about water leaks, mold, and various unsanitary conditions, particularly during 2024.

Unit PH6B has documented ongoing maintenance issues from 2023, including ceiling leaks and plaster damage. The building has a history of elevator service interruptions, with several complaints about lack of alternate service documented between 2023-2025. While there have been multiple violations regarding building maintenance and safety systems between 2018-2025, including issues with self-closing doors and fire safety systems, many have been resolved or dismissed, though some remain active as of 2025.
