Augrented Insights Report for 626 West 158th Street

The 5-unit, 3-story building at 626 West 158th Street in Washington Heights, owned by Gerasimos Damoulianos, has a documented history of persistent maintenance issues, particularly regarding moisture and sanitation problems. Most notably, there have been multiple reports and violations related to mold conditions between 2021 and 2024, with the most recent complaint filed in August 2024 being classified as unsanitary condition-mold and closed without violations.

The building has also experienced several sewage-related issues in 2021, with multiple complaints filed through 311 and HPD, though inspections were often unable to access the affected areas. Additional concerns emerged in 2020 regarding inadequate building security during power outages, leading to two violations that remain open in 2024, including improper electromagnetic lock installation and the need for a heavy-duty lock installation, as well as annual bedbug report filing violations from 2022 through 2024.

The property underwent significant scrutiny in 2021 regarding unauthorized modifications, with inspections revealing illegal construction work in the cellar area, including partition walls, plumbing installations, and conversion from 5 to 6 families, resulting in Environmental Control Board violations with penalties totaling $12,500. Rodent inspections between 2016 and 2024 show fluctuating conditions, with the most recent inspection in October 2024 receiving a passing result, while earlier inspections in 2024 recorded rat activity in January and February before bait applications were deployed. The building's maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive rather than proactive management, with multiple complaints going unaddressed or requiring reinspection due to access issues, though recent rodent inspections indicate some improvement in pest management.
