Augrented Insights Report for 150 West 179th Street

150 West 179th Street is a 6-story, 36-unit residential building constructed in 1931, currently owned by 150 Westmar Realty LLC. The property has experienced significant maintenance issues in recent years, with multiple open complaints as of July 2025, including water leaks, appliance problems (refrigerator and gas range), and intercom system malfunctions. A concerning pattern emerged in April 2025, when multiple complaints about water leaks, electrical issues, and safety concerns were filed, though many of these complaints could not be inspected by HPD due to access issues.

The building has several open violations as of 2024-2025, including structural concerns such as leaning parapet walls, deteriorated window lintels, and various safety-related problems. In 2023-2024, there were multiple active violations related to building systems and safety, including boiler access issues, scaffolding concerns, and failure to submit required engineering reports. Recent inspections showed improvements in rodent control, with passed inspections in 2023, 2024, and 2025, though there was one failure in 2019.

The building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing no infestations during the reporting period. While some violations from 2023-2024 have been resolved, several remain open, particularly regarding building safety and maintenance requirements, including penalties for failure to comply with previous orders and submit necessary documentation. The property has a history of various maintenance issues requiring attention, as evidenced by the pattern of service requests and violations over the past several years.
