Augrented Insights Report for 163 West 231st Street

163 West 231st Street is a 5-story, 22-unit residential building in Kingsbridge, constructed in 1912 and currently owned by 163 West 231st Street Heights Associates LLC. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, particularly evident in January 2025 when multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding lack of heat/hot water throughout the building. Similar complaints were recorded through late 2024, including violations related to heat and hot water systems.

The building has also faced maintenance challenges, with two apartments (units 24 and 25) currently having active Class B and C violations as of December 2024, including issues with mice infestations, radiator problems, and various building maintenance concerns. Recent inspections in February 2025 resulted in multiple non-emergency violations including issues with flooring, plumbing, and doors. The Department of Buildings has documented three failures to file required energy benchmarking reports between 2019 and 2022, though these violations were ultimately dismissed after confirmation of submission.

The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations since 2021, with zero reported cases in the most recent five reporting periods from 2021 to 2025. Historical records from 2014-2018 show consistent passing results for rodent inspections, suggesting generally effective pest management prior to the recent mouse infestation issues. While the building has faced various maintenance challenges, particularly regarding heating systems, most recent complaints have been addressed through HPD interventions, though some long-standing violations remain open as of the latest data.
