Augrented Insights Report for 667 West 161st Street

The six-story, 47-unit building at 667 West 161st Street in Washington Heights, owned by Shimon Greisman and constructed in 1900, has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, between March and June 2025, there were multiple complaints about water-related problems, including heavy flow leaks and slow leaks, as well as issues with heat and hot water maintenance. The building has been subject to various sanitary concerns, with multiple reports of mold and pest infestations in 2025, some of which were not able to be inspected due to access issues. The property has a significant history of structural and safety violations, particularly related to its facade and building systems.

In 2021, there were serious concerns about exterior masonry stability, with multiple ECB violations regarding facade maintenance and window lintel conditions. These led to emergency work orders and a partial vacate order for certain areas of the building. More recent violations from 2024-2025 include ongoing issues with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in apartment 6G, as well as multiple housing maintenance code violations related to surface conditions and water leaks. While there has been a complete absence of bedbug infestations since 2020, rodent control remains a concern, with mixed results in compliance inspections between 2021 and 2025, including confirmed rat activity in 2021 and 2025.

The building's inspection history reveals a pattern of water-related issues, sanitary concerns, and infrastructure maintenance problems. Recent complaints and violations suggest ongoing challenges with basic building systems such as heating and water supply, as well as continuing issues with moisture management and pest control. The property has failed several inspections for various reasons, with some violations remaining open as of the latest data. However, there is evidence of some improvements, as many previous violations from 2020-2021 were resolved or dismissed, and there have been no reported bedbug infestations in recent years.
