Augrented Insights Report for 670 East 170th Street

The 12-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement at 670 East 170th Street in Morrisania, owned by Mark Engel and built in 1931, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years, with the most significant concerns centering around heating and hot water systems. Between December 2022 and February 2023, there were multiple emergency complaints regarding heat and hot water problems affecting the entire building, though inspections indicated these issues were generally resolved.

The building has also undergone regular rodent control measures, with bait applied consistently from March 2022 through December 2024, and some inspections indicating rat activity in 2022 and 2023. The property has experienced various maintenance issues in recent years, including appliance problems (most recently in July 2023 regarding a refrigerator), and ceiling/wall paint/plaster issues (March 2023). A series of violations were documented in June 2021 specifically in Apartment 3C, including issues with water leaks, mold, and pest infestation, though these were subsequently addressed.

Historical violations from 2017 relating to plumbing and heating systems in Apartments 2A and 3B were also resolved by September 2019. The building has maintained a clean record with respect to bedbug infestation since 2019, with all annual reports showing zero infested units. While the property has experienced various maintenance challenges, particularly with heating systems and plumbing, most reported issues have been addressed through proper channels, as indicated by the closure of numerous complaints following inspection and resolution.
