Augrented Insights Report for 559 West 190th Street

The five-story New Law Tenement building at 559 West 190th Street in Washington Heights, owned by 551-565 West 190 Property LLC, has experienced several concerning issues in the past year and a half. Most notably, there have been ongoing rodent and pest problems, with multiple inspections revealing rat activity in 2023-2025, and currently open violations regarding unsanitary conditions and pests as of 2025. Apartment 5B has multiple open violations from an October 2024 inspection, including problems with water leaks, lead-based paint hazards, and missing safety devices (smoke and carbon monoxide detectors).

The building has also faced recurring heat and hot water issues, with complaints in December 2024 affecting both individual units and common areas, though inspections found heat and hot water restored in some cases. Other recent maintenance concerns include plumbing issues (bathtub, shower, and toilet), flooring problems, and various unsanitary conditions, with multiple 311 service requests filed in 2024-2025. The building's management has shown some responsiveness to maintenance issues, with several complaints being marked as closed after corrections were made.

However, recent complaints and open violations suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance and resident comfort. The property has a history of bedbug infestations between 2018-2020, but recent filings from 2021-2024 indicate no current infestations. Regular inspections have been conducted for pest control, with bait applied in 2023-2024, though recent compliance inspections in 2025 show continued pest presence.
