Augrented Insights Report for 421 West 162nd Street

The 65-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement at 421 West 162nd Street in Washington Heights, owned by Aaron Shirazi, has experienced several maintenance issues throughout 2024-2025, most notably concerning heat and hot water systems. In late 2024, multiple violations were documented regarding inadequate heat and hot water supply affecting various apartments (1K, 3F, and 4C), along with pest control issues in Apartment 3F. The building has faced recurring elevator service problems, with multiple complaints filed between 2022-2025, though inspections often resulted in no violations being found.

Recent 311 service requests and housing maintenance code complaints from May 2025 indicate ongoing issues with walls, flooring, and other maintenance concerns, though most inspections have not resulted in documented violations. The building's history also shows periodic water leak problems, with an emergency leak complaint in April 2025, and previous heating system violations noted in December 2024. The property has maintained an active record of addressing pest management, with annual bedbug reports from 2019-2024 showing no infestations.

Rodent inspections have generally passed, though there were some failed inspections in 2019-2020. The Department of Buildings has handled various violations, particularly regarding elevator service and building systems, though specific fines or penalties are not currently listed. The building's management has shown some responsiveness to violations, with many being certified as corrected, though access issues have occasionally complicated inspections. The most recent inspection data indicates a mix of resolved and ongoing maintenance concerns, with several complaints requiring tenant cooperation for access during inspections.
