Augrented Insights Report for 214 Audubon Avenue

The 6-story, 37-unit building at 214 Audubon Avenue in Washington Heights, owned by Boysie Siew and dating from 1909, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues in recent years. Between 2024 and 2025, there were multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water problems, with both apartment-specific and building-wide issues reported to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). The building has faced ongoing challenges with plumbing systems, as evidenced by multiple emergency complaints in mid-2024 covering various issues including water supply, toilet, bathtub/shower, basin/sink, and ceiling problems.

More recently, in 2025, there have been several complaints regarding smoking in non-smoking areas, which were investigated by the NYC Health Department. The elevator system has been a particular focus of attention, with multiple complaints between 2020 and 2023 regarding single device operation and lack of alternate service. Safety-related violations were documented in 2020-2021 related to elevator door monitoring and zone restrictor issues, though these were resolved with penalties totaling $2,500.

The building currently has active Department of Buildings violations for failure to display energy efficiency scores and file benchmarking reports between 2021 and 2022. Recent rodent inspections in 2024 show mixed results, with initial inspections showing rat activity and subsequent bait applications. The building has maintained some positive records, including a complete absence of bedbug infestations in recent years and consistent reporting of unit conditions showing no current pest problems.
