Augrented Insights Report for 541 West 204th Street

541 West 204th Street is a 6-story, 60-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1926, currently owned by Aaron Bauer. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent months, with multiple complaints and violations documented between December 2024 and June 2025.

The most pressing current concerns include open complaints about the building's bell/buzzer/intercom system and plumbing issues with basins/sinks, as well as recently documented rat activity (February 2025) following previous rat activity findings in compliance inspections from 2022 through early 2025. The building has also faced persistent issues with moisture and sanitation, including multiple complaints about mold, water leaks, and wall conditions during 2025, though some of these complaints were closed after inspection. Significant violations were documented in December 2024, primarily affecting apartment 4N, including issues with rodent infestations (roaches and mice), inadequate water supply, defective doors, and various maintenance deficiencies.

The building's systems have also raised concerns, with several boiler-related complaints recorded between 2018 and 2025, though most recent inspections did not warrant violations. While the building has undergone regular rodent control measures, evidenced by multiple bait applications in 2022-2025, the persistence of rat activity suggests ongoing pest management challenges. The property has a mixed record of addressing violations, with some being certified as corrected while others remain open as of the latest reporting period.
