Augrented Insights Report for 558 West 161st Street

558 West 161st Street is a 5-story, 7-unit residential building in Washington Heights, constructed in 2017 under the ownership of Chet Simunovich. The property has experienced several maintenance and safety-related events over its history, with the most recent concern being a building-wide heat and hot water issue reported in January 2025, which was subsequently addressed according to HPD records.

In 2021, the building received a violation for not filing its annual bedbug report, though since then, multiple bedbug reports have been submitted (latest in July 2025), consistently showing zero infested units. The building underwent construction from 2016-2018, during which several safety violations were recorded, including issues with overhead protection and scaffolding, as well as construction safety concerns related to welding activities.

These violations were ultimately resolved, and records show regular rodent inspections from 2014 to 2024, all passing without issues. The building's maintenance history shows generally good compliance with reporting requirements, though the recent heating system issue indicates there may be intermittent maintenance challenges. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations and rodent control since 2018, with consistent reporting showing no active infestations.
