Augrented Insights Report for 4740 Broadway

The 68-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement building at 4740 Broadway in Inwood, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Oscar Silva, has experienced persistent maintenance and safety issues over the past two years. Most notably, multiple complaints about heat and hot water outages in early 2025 and issues with sanitation, including pest infestations, have been recurring problems.

As of June 2025, there are several open maintenance issues, including plumbing problems, electrical outages, flooring concerns, and appliance malfunctions. The building has also faced challenges with safety equipment, evidenced by a 2025 complaint about non-functioning smoke detectors. Historical records show ongoing challenges with pest control, including reported infestations of mice and roaches in Apartment C4, as well as periodic bedbug incidents.

The Department of Buildings has documented various violations over the years, including work without permits and illegal conversions, though many of these complaints were closed due to lack of access for inspection or were dismissed. Recent rodent activity has been consistently recorded through inspection reports in 2023-2025, indicating an ongoing pest management challenge. While some violations have been resolved, such as issues with carbon monoxide detectors and leaky faucets in Apartment C4, the building continues to experience maintenance challenges that affect basic services and resident comfort.
