Augrented Insights Report for 304 East 139th Street

304 East 139th Street is a four-story, eight-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1931, currently owned by Michelle Toppin and located in the Mott Haven neighborhood of NYC. The building has experienced persistent maintenance issues, particularly in recent years, with significant problems emerging in 2023-2024. Most notably, there are multiple open violations related to apartment 3R, including ongoing rodent infestations (active violations from 2023) involving both mice and roaches, problems with excessive storage, and various maintenance issues involving plumbing, paint, and cabinet conditions.

The building has an alarming pattern of pest-related issues, with multiple HPD complaints in 2023 documenting unsanitary conditions, including recent 311 calls about pest problems in August 2023 that resulted in violations being issued. In addition to pest issues, there are serious concerns regarding building maintenance and compliance. Multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations are currently open, including the failure to file annual bedbug reports (2014 violation), and various repair needs documented by HPD inspections.

The property has also faced challenges with its boiler system, having accrued several active violations for failure to file required inspection reports between 2018-2024, with penalties imposed for non-compliance. Recent inspections through 2024 have confirmed ongoing rat activity despite prior baiting efforts, suggesting persistent pest control challenges. The building's history includes multiple HPD complaints from 2021 and earlier regarding various maintenance issues, including plumbing, paint, and door problems, with violations being issued in many cases. The pattern of complaints and violations, particularly relating to pest control and maintenance, suggests ongoing challenges with building management and property upkeep.
