Augrented Insights Report for 643 West 172nd Street

643 West 172nd Street is a 5-story, 31-unit residential building constructed in 1917 in Washington Heights. The property currently has several significant open maintenance issues as of mid-2025, including problems with lighting, flooring, cabinetry, window frames, and reported pest infestations. Multiple open 311 complaints from April 2025 regarding these issues indicate ongoing maintenance challenges.

The building has a documented history of rodent and pest problems, with multiple inspections showing rat activity between 2022 and 2025, and recent pest-related complaints in 2025. While there are violations recorded in 2024 for lead-based paint hazards, carbon monoxide detector issues, and multiple pest infestations in Apartment 56, these were marked as closed after remediation. The building's systems have undergone various inspections and repairs in recent years, including emergency heat/hot water complaints in April 2025 and previous boiler-related violations in 2020 and 2021 that resulted in ECB violations for maintenance issues.

A significant number of violations regarding building management practices are recorded, including multiple failures to file required energy benchmarking reports between 2021 and 2024, though some of these have been dismissed or marked as paid. The building's management company has shown compliance with the bedbug reporting requirements since 2020, indicating no current infestations. Recent inspections in early 2025 showed passing results for rodent inspections, though compliance failures were noted in previous inspections.
