Augrented Insights Report for 838 West 176th Street

838 West 176th Street in Washington Heights is a 6-story, 42-unit New Law Tenement built in 1924, currently owned by Enmanuel Cedano. The building has experienced recurring pest issues, particularly in apartment 3A, with multiple 311 complaints and violations for roach and mouse infestations documented between 2023 and 2024. The most recent complaints in 2025 (May and February) regarding unsanitary conditions with pests could not be inspected due to access issues, and there are open violations from October 2024 related to rodent problems.

The property has undergone several rodent inspections, with mixed results showing rat activity in 2022-2023, though a February 2025 inspection passed. The building has faced various maintenance challenges, including security and safety concerns in 2023 where violations were issued for improper fire door self-closing mechanisms, and illegal double-cylinder locks in apartment 3A. Significant building systems violations remain active from 2021 regarding unapproved gas dryer installations in the cellar, including concerns about gas supply, lack of sprinkler systems, and improper venting, with proposed penalties totaling $13,750.

Though the building has consistently filed bedbug reports showing zero infested units from 2018 through 2025, the ongoing pest issues and recent access concerns for inspections suggest persistent maintenance challenges. Additionally, there have been multiple elevator-related complaints and some historical issues with illegal conversions and commercial use violations, though these were generally dismissed upon inspection. The property has obtained various permits between 2018-2019 for unspecified work, with records showing proper filing and issuance through the Department of Buildings.
