Augrented Insights Report for 520 West 175th Street

520 West 175th Street is a 5-story, 16-unit "New Law" tenement building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Shmuel Bentov. The building has experienced various maintenance and quality of life issues over recent years, most notably in 2025 when multiple violations were recorded including problems with the building's flooring, windows, cabinets, and intercom system, with violations issued and certified in May 2025.

Other significant recent issues include unsanitary conditions related to garbage/recycling storage in 2024, and repeated pest-related complaints in 2023 and 2025. The building has also faced plumbing and sanitation challenges, with violations regarding garbage disposal methods and a December 2024 Department of Buildings violation for failure to file low-pressure inspections for two consecutive years. The property has maintained an active bedbug reporting history since 2019, showing no infestations or eradications in the most recent filings through 2025, and completed regular rodent inspections passed in 2024, though there was recorded rat activity in December 2023.

Historical records show various safety and maintenance issues, including problems with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in 2021, a heat/hot water complaint in early 2023, and multiple violations related to building access and security systems. While many of these issues have been resolved through HPD inspections and violations being closed, the pattern of maintenance requests and violations suggests ongoing challenges with building maintenance and resident amenities. The building's most recent rodent inspections in 2024 have shown consistent compliance, though there was one instance of rat activity noted in 2023, while recent pest control filings indicate an absence of bedbug issues since 2019.
