Augrented Insights Report for 601 West 162nd Street

601 West 162nd Street is a 6-story, 35-unit New Law Tenement built in 1911 located in Washington Heights and currently owned by Chris Sanchez. The building has experienced persistent issues with heating and pest problems over the past two years, with multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water outages affecting both entire buildings and individual apartments in 2024 and early 2025. There is an ongoing pattern of pest-related complaints, with three such complaints recorded in 2024 alone, and similar issues in early 2025, though inspections were often unable to be completed due to access issues. The building's elevator system has been a significant concern, with multiple complaints about single-device service between 2020-2025, including a violation served in April 2025.

Several maintenance and safety violations have been documented, including issues with water leaks and plaster damage in common areas and at least one apartment (1C) as of late 2024. The property has also faced challenges with rodent activity, as evidenced by multiple inspections from 2023 through 2025, with several indicating rat activity despite bait application attempts. The building's management has received multiple violations from the Department of Buildings regarding elevator maintenance and compliance, though many were dismissed upon re-inspection. The property has maintained up-to-date bedbug reporting records for the past three years, with no confirmed infestations or eradications reported.

Recent rodent inspections in 2025 show some improvement, with one passing inspection, though a failed inspection in March 2025 indicated continued challenges with pest control. The building has undergone various repairs and maintenance work as evidenced by multiple permit issuances between 2018 and 2020, though specific details on the nature of these works are not included. Recent housing maintenance code violations have been addressed, with many being certified as corrected. The property's management has demonstrated compliance with reporting requirements, including timely submissions of bedbug reports showing no infestation history in recent years.
