Augrented Insights Report for 120 Sherman Avenue

The 31-unit, 5-story tenement building at 120 Sherman Avenue in Inwood, owned by Sefik Gunes and constructed in 1910, has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, between May 1-31, 2025, there were multiple plumbing-related problems, including a water leak with heavy flow, issues with bathroom fixtures (bathtub/shower, toilet, and sink), and multiple violations related to walls requiring paint/plaster work. The building has also faced persistent rodent problems, with recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 consistently showing rat activity and necessitating bait applications.

The property has a concerning history of building system failures and safety violations. In late 2024, multiple violations were issued regarding heating systems, smoke detectors, and carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 30, which were subsequently certified as corrected in early 2025. However, there are currently open violations from November 2024 concerning multiple maintenance issues in Apartment 20, including a bathroom door, floor, and tile repairs.

An active ECB violation from September 2023 remains regarding improperly supported window A/C units on floors 2 and 5, which carries a $500 penalty. The building has a pattern of plumbing and water-related issues, with three emergency water leak complaints recorded in 2024-2025, including one classified as heavy flow in May 2025. Despite these ongoing maintenance challenges, the building has shown no reported issues with bedbugs since 2019, maintaining a clean history in this regard.
