Augrented Insights Report for 558 West 218th Street

This six-story, 43-unit residential building located at 558 West 218th Street in Inwood was constructed in 1939 and is currently owned by Mike Brucaj. The property has experienced recurring heating system issues, with multiple heating complaints filed in late 2024 through 2025, including problems with heat and hot water affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. Most recently, in April 2025, there were complaints about flooring/stairs and radiator issues, though HPD was unable to complete inspections for these complaints.

The building has also faced some infrastructure challenges, notably regarding a retaining wall issue in 2021 that resulted in a partial vacate order, and more recent complaints in 2024 concerning construction work, including a new retaining wall and ADA ramp installation. The elevator system has been another area of concern, with multiple complaints about single device operation and no alternate service, leading to violations in both 2018 and 2021, with active elevator maintenance violations recorded in 2021. The building's maintenance history shows various violations and inspections related to both interior and exterior conditions. Apartment 2E has had specific violations regarding hallway ceiling paint and door closure mechanisms, while Apartment 2G experienced multiple violations in 2021 related to mold, plaster repair, and painting requirements.

The property has undergone several rodent control measures, with recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 showing rat activity, though March 2025 resulted in a "passed" compliance status. The building's environmental control board violations from 2021 indicate various elevator system issues requiring attention. While there have been multiple pest-related concerns reported in 2023-2024, records show zero bedbug infestations reported across all dwelling units since at least 2019. The property faced significant challenges in 2021-2022 regarding a collapsed retaining wall and fire safety concerns, though many of these issues appear to have been resolved through subsequent inspections and repairs.
