Augrented Insights Report for 1561 St Nicholas Avenue

1561 St Nicholas Avenue is a 5-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1923 in Washington Heights, containing 38 residential units and currently owned by Abraham Ramirez. The property has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water throughout 2024-2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed in January 2025 regarding heat/hot water issues impacting the entire building, though some inspections were unable to gain access for verification.

The building has also faced several door-related maintenance challenges, with complaints in 2024-2025 regarding doors and door frames, including one emergency complaint from March 2024. The property underwent an inspection on April 1, 2022, which revealed various violations including issues with public hall ceilings, door frames, and a bathtub in apartment 5D, though these were subsequently certified as corrected by May 2022.

Notably, the building has maintained a clean bedbug record for the past three reporting periods (2021-2024), and while there have been multiple instances of rat activity recorded between 2022 and 2025, the most recent inspections in April 2025 showed a "Passed" compliance result. The building's maintenance history shows a mix of emergency and non-emergency complaints, with recent focus primarily on heat/hot water systems and door-related issues, while earlier violations centered around maintenance of public spaces and individual units.
