Augrented Insights Report for 353 East 138th Street

353 East 138th Street is a 5-story, 8-unit Old Law Tenement building located in the Mott Haven neighborhood, built in 1931 and currently owned by Daniel Yaghoubi. The building has experienced ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly with heat and hot water systems, as evidenced by multiple complaints and violations throughout 2024-2025. From December 2024 to April 2025, there were three heat/hot water-related complaints, including violations issued for inadequate heat and hot water in Apartment 3E.

Other recent issues include plumbing problems (basin/sink) and unsanitary conditions (mold) in April 2025, with HPD inspectors unable to gain access for proper inspection in some cases. The building has a documented history of rodent activity, with inspections showing rat activity in May 2023 and July 2023, though the most recent bedbug reports from 2021-2024 indicate no infestations during those periods. Additional maintenance concerns include ongoing roof leak issues affecting Apartment 5W, which has multiple open violations regarding roof repairs and other maintenance matters such as floor tile replacement and carbon monoxide detector functionality.

The property has also faced challenges with sanitary conditions, as demonstrated by three food poisoning complaints in early 2024. An open Department of Buildings violation from April 2023 remains active regarding failure to file a 2022 external low-pressure inspection. While the building has passed some inspections and had some violations closed, the frequency and variety of recent complaints suggest continuing maintenance and compliance challenges.
