Augrented Insights Report for 97 Sherman Avenue

97 Sherman Avenue in Inwood, a 100-unit New Law Tenement built in 1930 and owned by Blashan Realty LLC, has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues over the past several years. Most notably, in December 2024, the building suffered significant fire damage affecting multiple floors (apartments 3R, 4R, 5R, and 6R), resulting in Class C violations that remain open.

The building has ongoing rodent problems, with rat activity confirmed in compliance inspections throughout 2024 and 2025. Recent complaints from 2025 include issues with stairs, garbage/recycling storage, water leaks, and multiple reports of unsanitary conditions related to pests, though some of these complaints were closed without inspection due to access issues. The building's maintenance history shows ongoing concerns with basic upkeep and safety systems.

There are active Environmental Control Board violations from 2020 regarding elevator door lock monitoring requirements, and multiple open violations from a December 2024 inspection related to ceiling conditions and fire safety features. Past complaints and violations indicate recurring issues with various building systems, including plumbing (water leaks), elevator maintenance, and window/door functionality. While the building has had consistent bedbug management reporting showing no infestations between 2021 and 2025, the current pest control measures appear to be focusing primarily on rodent issues, as evidenced by multiple bait applications throughout 2024.
