Augrented Insights Report for 12 Arden Street

12 Arden Street is a 5-story, 26-unit residential building located in Inwood, constructed in 1925 and currently owned by Joseph Zitolo. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues in 2025, with multiple complaints showing patterns of system failures, though most were resolved following HPD inspections or resident confirmations of repairs. A significant cluster of maintenance issues emerged in March 2025, including three separate heat/hot water complaints, along with open violations related to ceiling paint/plaster, door issues, and wall maintenance.

Prior to these incidents, the building faced several notable challenges in 2023-2024, including electrical problems (no lighting) in December 2024, and a rodent issue reported in September 2024. The building's maintenance history reveals various habitability concerns, including multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations. In 2023, violations were documented for apartment 5C, including issues with smoke detectors, carbon monoxide devices, electrical wiring, and mold. Apartment 4D experienced rodent infestations that same year.

The property underwent facade work in 2021, which resulted in several citations for unpermitted work and safety violations, though most were ultimately resolved. The building's environmental control board violations from 2023-2024 indicate ongoing maintenance challenges, with penalties related to water drainage issues and inadequate housekeeping documented in 2022-2023. While the building has had past bedbug issues (notably in 2019), recent filings for 2021 through 2024 show no active infestations. The property has also maintained reasonable compliance with rodent inspections, passing the most recent inspection in March 2025, though with documented rat activity in previous years.
