Augrented Insights Report for 359 East 138th Street

The five-story, 13-unit building at 359 East 138th Street in Mott Haven, owned by Ivan Tomasovic, has experienced persistent maintenance and safety issues throughout 2024 and 2025. Recent emergency complaints as of June 2025 involve concerns with mold, doors, window frames, cooking gas, and a refrigerator, while April 2025 saw multiple violations related to plumbing (bathtubs/showers and sinks), floor conditions, and windows.

The building has documented rodent activity throughout 2024-2025, with inspections consistently showing rat presence, though bait was applied in several instances. A concerning pattern of unsanitary conditions emerged in 2025, with reported mold problems and pest-related issues. The property has outstanding violations from a December 2024 inspection of Apartment 4E, including concerns about smoke detector compliance, window guards, carbon monoxide detectors, and various maintenance issues such as broken plaster, defective fixtures, and unauthorized alterations.

The building's heating system also faced scrutiny in 2025, with violations related to heat and hot water service. While there was one elevator-related violation from 2019 regarding non-operation, this was resolved with no penalty. The building maintains a clean record for bedbug complaints, with no infestations reported between 2018-2025, though recent pest management activities suggest ongoing difficulties with other vermin.
