Augrented Insights Report for 20 East 179th Street

20 East 179th Street is a 5-story, 30-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1926, currently owned by Linda Mojica and located in the Mount Hope neighborhood of the Bronx. The building has experienced recurring heat and water issues, with multiple complaints regarding heat/hot water failures in both individual apartments and the entire building, most recently in December 2024.

The property has also faced significant maintenance challenges, including plumbing issues, water leaks, and pest problems throughout 2023-2024, with violations issued for unsanitary conditions including mold and pest infestations. Apartment 5E has been a particular focus of multiple violations, with documented issues including mold, pest infestations, leaks, and various maintenance problems as of 2024.

The building's recent history includes a bedbug incident in late 2024 and ongoing rodent management activities, with mixed inspection results in 2022-2025 showing periods of rat activity followed by compliance passes. An important administrative matter was addressed in 2023 when the building received a violation for failing to file an energy benchmarking report, though this was ultimately dismissed after confirmation of submission. The property has undergone various repair work as evidenced by multiple permits issued between 2018 and 2020, including exterior work and plumbing repairs, though specific details on the nature of these repairs are not provided in the available data.
