Augrented Insights Report for 44 Bennett Avenue

44 Bennett Avenue is a 6-story, 66-unit residential building located in Washington Heights, owned by Chizuk Associates and built in 1928. The building has experienced several significant issues in recent years, most notably a heating and hot water emergency affecting the entire building in December 2024, for which inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the conditions. Between February and April 2024, multiple inspections were conducted regarding various maintenance issues including mold, flooring problems, ceiling damage, water leaks, and plumbing concerns, though no violations were issued in connection with these inspections.

The building suffered fire damage in December 2023 affecting apartments 6F, 6G, and 6H, and subsequent inspections in late 2024 revealed gas supply issues affecting units 6F, 6G, and 6H. The elevator system has been a recurring concern, with multiple complaints about single-device service and no alternate service between 2019 and 2024. In 2024, a violation was issued regarding debris conditions in apartment 3G, including water damage and ceiling issues.

The building has had three periods of bedbug infestations between 2020 and 2024, though no units were listed as infested in the most recent reports. Regular rodent inspections have been conducted annually since 2015, with consistent passing results. The property's maintenance history shows some improvement in recent years, with the most recent bedbug reports indicating zero infestations, and recent rodent inspections also showing passing results. The building's management has addressed various violations and complaints, with some remaining active violations related to immediate hazards that require certification of correction.
