Augrented Insights Report for 636 West 158th Street

636 West 158th Street is a three-story building in Washington Heights, owned by Javier Martinez, that has experienced numerous maintenance and compliance issues over recent years. Most notably, the building has faced multiple violations relating to bedbug reporting compliance, with several open and closed violations between 2022-2024 indicating ongoing issues with adherence to Housing Maintenance Code requirements regarding annual bedbug reports. The property has also encountered significant structural and safety concerns, including three open violations from September 2023 related to defective concrete at the building's front stairs and pavement, classified as Class B and C violations.

The building underwent major demolition and construction work in early 2024, which triggered multiple Environmental Control Board violations for unsafe construction practices, including inadequate debris containment, improper demolition methods, and security issues with scaffolding. While most of these violations were resolved by mid-2024, they included significant financial penalties totaling over $12,500. The property has also experienced rodent issues, though recent inspections in October 2024 showed compliance with requirements, following earlier inspections in 2024 that indicated rat activity and required bait application.

A series of 311 complaints regarding flooring issues in July 2023 was resolved by September 2023 through HPD intervention. Recent construction activities in early 2025 generated multiple complaints about after-hours work and construction method violations, though inspections generally found no violations warranting enforcement actions. The building currently holds valid permits for demolition and equipment work issued in April 2024, suggesting active construction or renovation work has continued into 2025.
