Augrented Insights Report for 278 East 239th Street

The 278 East 239th Street building in Woodlawn, owned by Maria Valente, is a 5-story, 45-unit New Law Tenement constructed in 1928. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints filed between January 2024 and February 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. Recent 2025 complaints have been addressed but indicate persistent heating system problems.

The building received several violations in early 2024, including inadequate heat supply in specific apartments (notably 1I and 3I), window repairs needed in apartment 3I, and issues with self-closing doors in public areas. Two critical violations remain from January 2024: one regarding the fire escape drop ladder and another about heating system access notification requirements. The building's maintenance history shows attention to heating system issues, with multiple Emergency Housing Maintenance Code Complaints logged and subsequently closed. Other maintenance matters have been addressed, including a flooring issue reported in 2024.

The property has maintained a good record regarding pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past three years, though there was one isolated incident in 2020. Rodent inspections in 2019 and 2023 passed successfully. The building's environmental and department of buildings records show no major violations since 2022, when a sign-related violation was resolved, and an annual boiler inspection report issue from 2020 was dismissed in 2022. The most recent heating complaints and violations suggest ongoing challenges with the building's heating infrastructure, though many past issues have been resolved through appropriate channels.
