Augrented Insights Report for 15 Wadsworth Avenue

The 5-story, 25-unit old law tenement at 15 Wadsworth Avenue in Washington Heights, built in 1910 and currently owned by Broadway Inwood LLC, has experienced significant recurring maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there have been multiple building-wide heat and hot water problems, with six separate complaints between December 2024 and March 2025, though HPD inspections were often unable to gain access to verify the conditions.

More recently, as of April 2025, there have been complaints about water leaks, including both a slow leak (April 2025) and damp spot issues (June 2025), with current housing maintenance code complaints still marked as open. The building has faced various other maintenance challenges, including an ongoing rodent control issue with multiple inspections showing rat activity throughout 2023 and 2024, though bait was applied as of January 2025. In June 2024, several violations were issued related to apartment 4B, including concerns about mouse infestation, lead paint hazards, and various maintenance issues requiring repairs and proper painting.

The property has a history of egress-related complaints, particularly in 2019 and 2021, though most were found to have no violations upon inspection. Structural and maintenance issues were noted in 2021 regarding the decorative cornice, with multiple violations for failure to maintain code compliance, though these have since been resolved. The building's management must address the current open complaints regarding water issues and lack of hot water/heat to improve tenant comfort and building conditions.
