Augrented Insights Report for 440 West 238th Street

440 West 238th Street is a 6-story, 8-unit residential building constructed in 1989 and currently owned by Orest Zuk, located in the Fieldston neighborhood. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years, with the most recent concern being a pest-related complaint filed in September 2024 for which HPD was unable to gain access to conduct an inspection. During October 2018, the building faced multiple significant issues including an entire building heat/hot water complaint, safety concerns regarding the fire escape, and problems with garbage/recycling storage, though no violations were issued during the inspections.

The building currently has several open Class A violations as of September 2024, primarily related to safety and maintenance requirements including carbon monoxide detector notification requirements, inspection certificate posting, and gas leak notice procedures. Additionally, there have been bedbug reporting violations for 2023-2024, though previous reports from 2020-2021 showed no infestation issues. Historical records show past rodent activity in 2015-2016, and an illegal conversion complaint was filed in October 2018, though inspectors were unable to gain access for verification.

The building's maintenance history indicates ongoing challenges with access for inspections, as evidenced by multiple instances (most recently in 2024 and 2018) where HPD inspectors were unable to gain entry to investigate complaints. While the property has shown some compliance with certain regulations (with previous bedbug reports showing no infestations), the pattern of recurring issues and the presence of multiple open violations as of 2024 suggests continuing regulatory compliance challenges. The building was water heater/heat system issues in 2018, and the most recent pest complaint in 2024 indicates ongoing maintenance and resident comfort concerns, though it's worth noting that some issues were resolved without violations being issued.
