Augrented Insights Report for 674 East 138th Street

674 East 138th Street is a 5-story, 16-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1915 and currently owned by Madelyn Lugo. The building has experienced several maintenance issues in recent months, with multiple complaints filed between February and March 2025 regarding various problems including window frames, pests, wall conditions, plumbing (bathtub/shower), water leaks, and heating/hot water issues. HPD inspections of these complaints found no housing law violations.

However, a February 2025 complaint about a cabinet resulted in violations being issued, and multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations remain open from mid-2024, including issues with floor signs, floor conditions, and various door latches throughout the building. The property has a history of rodent-related concerns, with several inspections between 2018 and 2022 showing rat activity, though an initial inspection in May 2023 passed. Bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024 indicate no infestations during the past four reporting periods.

Recent building violations include an active ECB violation from October 2023 regarding a missing support bracket for a third-floor window AC unit, and a 2023 violation related to failure to file the 2021 external low-pressure inspection. While the building has experienced multiple maintenance issues, recent complaints have generally been addressed by HPD inspections, though with varying results regarding violations. The most pressing current concerns appear to be the open violations from 2024 regarding various building maintenance issues and the active ECB violation related to the window AC unit support bracket.
