Augrented Insights Report for 19 Ft Washington Avenue

19 Fort Washington Avenue is a 6-story, 36-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1920, currently owned by Rafaela Capellan. The building has experienced recurring maintenance and sanitation issues, particularly in the past two years, with the most recent concerning incident being a chemical vapors/odors complaint in August 2024 that prompted a DOHMH advisory to the owner. There have been multiple pest-related complaints, including three separate pest incidents in 2023 (September and October) and a rat sighting in August 2023, with inspections revealing rat activity in 2024.

A notable sequence of housing maintenance code violations was recorded in early 2024, affecting multiple apartments (1F, 2E, 2E, and 3B) involving issues with self-closing doors, bathroom fixtures, countertops, and plastered surfaces. While many of these violations were subsequently closed, there are still open Class C violations for self-closing doors in 2E and 1F. The building has also undergone several inspections and received various complaints regarding building systems and services. Two compliance inspections in 2024 and 2025 (Local Law 188/17 and Elevator service) found no violations.

Historical records indicate a history of rodent issues, with the most recent inspections confirming rat activity in January 2024 and August 2023. However, it is worth noting that the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in the past five years. The property has had three separate inspections for unsanitary conditions related to garbage/recycling storage in 2023, though no violations were issued in those cases. Despite the multiple issues recorded, many have been addressed and closed through inspections and subsequent repairs, though some persistent problems, particularly regarding door hardware and pest control, remain a concern as of the latest records.
