Augrented Insights Report for 689 East 170th Street

The two-story, three-unit residential building at 689 East 170th Street in Morrisania, owned by Will Campbell Sr, has experienced a range of maintenance issues over recent years, with the most serious concerns relating to water and heating systems, structural integrity, and multiple safety violations. Most recently, a March 2025 plumbing complaint regarding toilet issues was closed without inspection access, while in late 2023 there was an entire-building heat and hot water issue that was resolved through tenant confirmation. Significant maintenance problems emerged in 2023, including multiple complaints about ceiling conditions, with violations issued in August 2023 for both paint/plaster and more serious concerns involving visible mold.

The building has also faced recurring water-related issues, including a slow leak complaint in 2022 and historical problems dating back to 2021 when a partial vacate order was issued due to structural concerns. Additionally, there are open Housing Maintenance Code violations listed as of 2024, including an unresolved requirement to file an annual bedbug report, and several violations from 2023 relating to lead paint hazards and necessary repairs in the second-floor apartment. The property's maintenance history shows periodic rodent issues, with rat activity documented in 2013-2014 and more recent inspections showing failed results in 2015 and 2022.

The building has experienced various emergency situations requiring HPD intervention, particularly regarding heat and water systems, which are critical for tenant comfort and habitability. While some maintenance issues have been resolved promptly, as evidenced by the quick closure of many complaints, several significant violations remain open, particularly concerning lead paint hazards, which pose potential health risks. The building's age (constructed in 1901) and history of various maintenance responses suggest ongoing challenges with maintaining basic building systems and addressing safety requirements.
