Augrented Insights Report for 601 East 149th Street

601 East 149th Street is a 6-story, 39-unit residential building constructed in 1923 and currently owned by Chaim Leser. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout winter 2024-2025, with multiple complaints (including December 2024, January 2025, and February 2025) filed and subsequently verified as corrected by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

The building has two open violations from 2024 related to building safety, including an infestation issue in apartment 2A (June 2024) and unauthorized plexiglass installation in the front entrance area (November 2024). The elevator system has been a recurring concern, with several complaints about inadequate service and maintenance between 2019-2025, including an active violation regarding failure to correct defects from 2019's CAT 1 inspection. The property's maintenance history shows attention to both rodent control and bedbug management, with regular inspections and reporting showing no current infestations.

Recent building safety inspections have revealed both concerning patterns and some improvements: while there have been multiple heat/hot water complaints this winter, the building has passed rodent inspections in 2023 and 2022, though there were documented rat activity issues in early 2022. The building has multiple open Department of Buildings violations as of 2024-2025 regarding failure to properly certify corrections for hazardous conditions and failure to file required reports, including a currently active ECB violation from 2024 regarding an air conditioning unit's placement on a fire escape. While the building's historical data shows some pattern of recurring maintenance issues, particularly with systems like heating and elevators, it also demonstrates periods of compliance with health and safety standards, including regular bedbug reporting showing no infestations from 2020 onward and recent rodent control compliance.
