Augrented Insights Report for 1520 Sedgwick Avenue

The 18-story, 101-unit building at 1520 Sedgwick Avenue in Morris Heights, owned by John Warren, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, most notably in 2025. Multiple emergency service requests for water leaks, plumbing problems, and sanitary conditions have been logged, including a heavy flow water leak in June 2025, and concerns about inadequate heat and hot water in May 2025 affecting the entire building. The building was previously cited for unsafe facade conditions in 2022, with fines imposed for failure to secure public safety, though these issues were subsequently resolved.

Apartment 5A has documented violations requiring attention to various infrastructure elements including faucets, smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, bathroom tiles, plaster surfaces, and rodent infestation, with some violations remaining active as of 2024. Regular rodent control measures have been implemented throughout 2024 and 2025, indicating ongoing pest management efforts. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of plumbing and water-related issues, with multiple service requests related to water leaks, inadequate heating systems, and unsanitary conditions.

There have also been several complaints about door/window issues and elevator devices, with one elevator-related complaint from 2025 currently marked as active. The property has undergone various inspections for bedbugs, with no reported infestations in recent years, though there were two cases noted in 2020-2021. Environmental control board violations from 2021-2022 highlighted problems with the boiler system and facade conditions, while recent DOB violations indicate ongoing concerns with energy efficiency reporting documentation. Multiple complaints regarding sidewalk sheds and scaffolding were submitted in 2022-2023, though inspections found no violations warranting penalties.
