Augrented Insights Report for 421 Audubon Avenue

The 38-unit, 5-story building at 421 Audubon Avenue in Washington Heights, owned by Yoel Aryeh, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2025, with multiple complaints filed for both entire building and individual apartments between April and May 2025. While most of these complaints were closed following inspections or owner responses, a significant open complaint from April 2025 regarding unsanitary conditions in the garbage/recycling storage remains unresolved.

The building has also faced various maintenance challenges in 2025, including problems with window guards, lighting, plumbing, and sprinkler systems, with several classified as emergency situations and addressed within days of reporting. Prior to 2025, the building's history shows consistent concerns with its heating systems, particularly evident in violations from late 2024 in apartment 34 regarding inadequate heat supply and hot water temperature issues.

Other notable violations include water leakage, an interplay of window guard safety issues, and various structural concerns documented through Housing Maintenance Code violations. The building's regulatory history features several Department of Buildings complaints about boiler issues and construction work, though most were resolved without finding any violations at the time of inspection. The property has passed multiple rodent inspections from 2016 through 2024, suggesting generally good pest control management, and has maintained compliance with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development's rodent inspection requirements.
