Augrented Insights Report for 519 West 189th Street

519 West 189th Street is a five-story, 45-unit New Law tenement building in Washington Heights, constructed in 1925 and currently owned by 519-521 West 189th LLC. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues in 2025, with multiple Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) violations issued in June 2025 alone, including problems with the intercom system, flooring, and unsanitary conditions related to mold. Notably, there are open violations from September 2024 regarding lead paint hazards in apartment 1H, along with historical pest control issues including mouse and cockroach infestations that were documented and required remediation.

The building's recent history shows ongoing infrastructure concerns, including a heat and hot water complaint in March 2025 where HPD was unable to gain access for inspection. While rodent inspections have generally passed since 2019, a rat activity report was generated in September 2024. The property has also faced several egress-related complaints between 2021 and 2024, though inspections typically found no violations at the time of review.

Noteworthy violations from 2021 involve obstructed exit passageways and issues with fire escape access, though these were resolved. The building had energy efficiency-related violations in 2021-2022 regarding benchmarking and score display requirements, with the more recent violation remaining active as of 2023. Bedbug reports from 2019-2024 show consistent zero infestation counts, indicating effective pest management protocols in this regard.
