Augrented Insights Report for 900 Riverside Drive

This 71-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement building at 900 Riverside Drive in Washington Heights, owned by Scott Berman and constructed in 1915, has experienced significant maintenance challenges in recent years. The most pressing current issues involve repeated heating and hot water system problems throughout the building during Spring 2025, with multiple 311 complaints and Housing Maintenance Code violations. Of particular concern is ongoing mold-related issues, with an open complaint as of May 2025 that HPD has noted requires tenant cooperation for access to address the problem.

The building has a documented history of façade maintenance issues, with active violations related to cracked terra cotta elements and deteriorating façade conditions as of 2024-2025. Multiple inspections from 2021-2024 have identified problems with self-closing doors and other building safety features, though many of these violations have been subsequently closed after requiring repairs. There have been persistent rodent control challenges, with multiple inspections in 2024-2025 showing rat activity and the use of baiting throughout the building.

Recent inspections also identified sanitation concerns, particularly regarding building entrances and common areas. While the building's management has generally responded to violations and service requests, the frequency of recent heating/water issues and persistent rodent activity suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. Notably, the building has maintained a "0" reporting history for bedbugs since 2020, indicating no infestations during this period.
