Augrented Insights Report for 154 Vermilyea Avenue

154 Vermilyea Avenue is a 5-story, 30-unit New Law Tenement building in Inwood, built in 1925 and currently owned by Joel Kohen. The building has experienced persistent maintenance issues in recent months, with multiple open complaints as of March 2025, including problems with door frames, plumbing (sink issues), flooring, walls, ceilings, and pest control. A significant water leak was reported and addressed in April 2025, while recent rodent inspections from 2024-2025 have shown consistent rat activity, though an April 2025 inspection passed.

Previous inspections revealed several violations in August 2024, including problems with self-closing doors, a defective door frame, and an infestation of roaches in Apartment 3, which was subsequently addressed. The building's recent history shows recurring issues with heat and hot water in December 2024, though these were resolved. Notably, the property has maintained a bedbug-free status since 2019, with no reported infestations in the past six annual filings.

There have been multiple complaints regarding unsanitary conditions and pest issues, with an open pest complaint as of March 2025. While some issues have been promptly addressed and closed, such as a flooring complaint from March 2025 and heat/hot water complaints from December 2024, there remains a cluster of open complaints from March 2025 that require attention. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with building systems and infrastructure, particularly regarding access, sanitation, and basic services.
