Augrented Insights Report for 244 Seaman Avenue

244 Seaman Avenue is a 9-story, 76-unit Class A residential building in Inwood, built in 1966 and currently owned by Christopher Alker. The building has experienced persistent heating and hot water issues since early 2024, with nine emergency complaints recorded between February 2024 and January 2025, most recently in January 2025 for the entire building.

The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) has repeatedly been unable to gain access to conduct inspections, though one complaint in November 2024 indicated that some conditions were corrected. The building has multiple open Housing Maintenance Code violations, particularly concerning Unit 6C, which has issues with self-closing doors and hot water availability as of December 2023. The property has a documented history of maintenance challenges, including elevator problems in 2021 that resulted in two Class 1 ECB violations with $2,500 in penalties, though these were subsequently resolved.

An active violation from 2020-2021 regarding the failure to file energy benchmarking reports remains on record, and there are open violations from 2018 concerning building safety notices related to heating system maintenance and gas leak procedures. While the building has passed multiple rodent inspections in 2023 and 2024, there were indications of rat activity in late 2022 and early 2023. The building's bedbug reporting from 2021-2025 shows zero infestation cases in each annual filing period, and the most recent rodent inspection in April 2025 was passed, suggesting some improvement in pest management.
