Augrented Insights Report for 2160 Matthews Avenue

2160 Matthews Avenue is a 6-story, 133-unit building located in the Bronxdale neighborhood, constructed in 1964 and currently owned by Philip Goldfarb. The property has experienced significant heating system issues throughout early 2025, with multiple tenant complaints about heat and hot water outages in January and February 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. At least two sets of violations were issued in January 2025, with subsequent complaints being marked as duplicates of existing issues.

The building has an open Class B violation from November 2023 regarding defective plaster surfaces and paint in apartment 4M, with additional open violations from October 2023 concerning various maintenance issues in the same unit, including door hinges, ceiling surfaces, and refrigerator seal problems. The property has a history of elevator-related concerns, with complaints filed in 2023 and 2024 regarding elevator devices, though inspections did not warrant violations. A Construction Safety Compliance violation was recorded and served in February 2023.

The building's bedbug reporting history from 2021 through 2024 shows generally good management, with most reporting periods showing zero infested units, except for a single case in 2021 that was marked as eradicated. Recent maintenance activity includes multiple permits issued throughout 2023-2024, with the most recent being issued in October 2024. The building has undergone several rodent inspections between 2013 and 2022, with varying results, including some failures for "Other Reasons," though most recent inspections have passed.
