Augrented Insights Report for 37 Payson Avenue

The 5-story, 56-unit residential building at 37 Payson Avenue in Inwood, owned by Steve Gross and constructed in 1925, has experienced significant maintenance and safety issues in recent months. Most notably, in June 2025, the building received a DOHMH complaint regarding rodents/insects/garbage in a food establishment that is currently in progress.

Between April and June 2025, multiple HPD inspections revealed various violations, including safety concerns with smoke detectors, unsanitary conditions related to pests, and issues with door/window infrastructure. The building has a documented history of pest problems, with one unit reporting bedbug infestation in the 2023-2024 period and ongoing rodent activity noted in inspections throughout 2023-2024. The Department of Buildings records indicate persistent maintenance challenges, with various complaints between 2018 and 2023 related to egress, plumbing work, and electrical systems, though most were closed with no violations found upon inspection.

Apartment 3F has multiple documented violations from a December 2024 inspection, including issues with smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, lead paint hazards, and evidence of pests. Building-wide complaints in 2025 included heating/hot water issues that were not able to be verified due to access difficulties. While some improvements have been documented through permit issuance for plumbing work in 2019 and 2023, the frequency and range of complaints suggest ongoing maintenance challenges within the 1925 structure, requiring multiple agency interventions to address various safety and habitability concerns.
