Augrented Insights Report for 2228 Amsterdam Avenue

The 35-unit, 6-story tenement building at 2228 Amsterdam Avenue in Washington Heights, owned by Mike Spira, has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent years, particularly between 2023 and 2024. The building has faced recurring plumbing problems, including toilet and sink issues, with emergency complaints logged in July 2023 and January 2024. Pests have been a persistent concern, with several unsanitary condition complaints related to pests recorded in both 2023 and 2024.

There were also infrastructure problems, including a heavy water leak in September 2023, door issues in December 2023, and multiple instances of mold and water damage affecting various units throughout 2023-2024. The building's maintenance record shows a pattern of violations and required repairs, particularly in Apartment 4B, where multiple issues were documented in January 2024, including rodent infestations, plumbing problems, and damage to various fixtures and surfaces. The property has also faced challenges with building systems, including a heat and hot water complaint in June 2023 that could not be inspected.

More recently, in April 2024, violations were issued regarding fire retardant material and paint conditions in the public hall stairs. While rodent inspections in 2022, 2023, and 2024 have passed, there were earlier instances of rat activity recorded in 2019. The bedbug reporting history shows relatively few cases, with only one reported infestation in 2021 and none in recent filings from 2022-2024.
