Augrented Insights Report for 160 Schermerhorn Street

160 Schermerhorn Street, an 11-story, 190-unit Class A apartment building constructed in 2007 and currently owned by Brenda Rosen, has experienced a range of maintenance and quality of life issues over the past two years. The most pressing current concern is an open plumbing issue regarding a toilet, reported in June 2025. The building has faced recurring heat and hot water problems, with multiple complaints during 2025 and documented violations in late 2024 affecting multiple apartments (326, 514, 801).

Residents have also reported unsanitary conditions including mold and pest infestations (notably in apartment 623, June 2024) and problems with cabinets. There have been three documented bedbug infestation incidents between 2021-2024, with the most recent case recorded in December 2024. The building's elevator system has been a recurring concern, with multiple complaints about its operation, particularly in September 2021 when it was found out of service, resulting in violations and penalties. Recent inspections in 2024 indicated both rat activity (April) and passed inspections (November).

A significant outstanding issue is the failure to display the energy efficiency score and grade as required by city regulations, noted as an active violation from December 2023. The property has gone through various inspection cycles regarding rodent control, with mixed results including both passes and failures in recent years. An illegal conversion complaint was filed in 2025, though access was denied during inspection attempts. The building's management has faced multiple inspection-driven violations between 2023-2024, including issues with heating systems, unsanitary conditions, and various maintenance concerns across multiple units.
