Augrented Insights Report for 149 East 165th Street

The 5-story, 20-unit New Law Tenement building at 149 East 165th Street in the Concourse neighborhood, owned by Leonard Schwartz and constructed in 1919, has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent years, particularly related to water leaks and window frames. Between September 2023 and May 2024, there have been multiple documented emergency complaints regarding heavy water leaks and window frame problems, with the most recent water leak complaints occurring in May 2024.

The building currently has several open Housing Maintenance Code violations from the May 2024 inspection, primarily affecting apartment 5B, including issues with a key-operated lock at a fire escape window, broken plaster surfaces, and roof leaks. Additionally, two active Environmental Control Board violations from April 2022 remain unresolved, concerning safety issues with the boiler's rating plate and front door. The building has maintained regular bedbug reporting compliance from 2021 through 2024, with no reported infestations in the most recent filing period (2023-2024).

A concerning pattern is emerging with rodent inspections, as the building experienced a failed inspection in May 2025, though this was preceded by successful inspections in November 2024, and other recent years. The property's maintenance history includes some positive developments, such as the resolution of numerous violations documented from 2019 through 2024, including various boiler, door, and ceiling repair issues, though many new violations have since emerged. The Department of Buildings records show ongoing boiler compliance issues, with a requirement to file annual inspection reports dating back to 2019.
