Augrented Insights Report for 4079 Broadway

4079 Broadway is a 6-story, 54-unit residential building located in Washington Heights, built in 1924 and currently owned by Florence Edelstein. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly between March and April 2025, when multiple complaints were filed regarding water leaks (including heavy flow incidents), mold, and elevator maintenance issues. Apartment 60 has several open violations from a July 2024 inspection related to lead-based paint hazards, including peeling paint issues in the kitchen, bathroom, and foyer areas, as well as problems with plastered surfaces.

The building's elevator system has been a recurring concern, with violations issued in 2024-2025 regarding defective safety devices and maintenance issues, resulting in penalties totaling $2,500. The property has a history of various regulatory violations, including failure to submit required external wall inspection reports (FISP Cycle 8C) and energy efficiency documentation. There have been multiple water-related complaints and repairs needed, with violations issued for water leaks requiring owner corrections.

While the building's bedbug and rodent inspection records show some rat activity in 2023-2024, recent inspections in early 2025 have passed. The building also faced issues with unauthorized commercial uses, including an illegal massage parlor operation on the ground floor in 2024, though this appears to have been resolved. The property's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic building systems and infrastructure, particularly regarding water management and elevator safety systems, while also indicating some progress in addressing specific violations through inspection and correction processes.
