Augrented Insights Report for 55 Avenue C

55 Avenue C is a 5-story, 24-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Jolyon Russ. The building has experienced recurring pest management issues, particularly with rodent infestations, as evidenced by multiple failed inspections in 2023 and 2024, though most recent inspections in 2025 have passed.

There has also been notable attention to bedbug reporting compliance, with violations recorded in 2021, 2022, and 2023 for failure to submit annual bedbug reports. The building's maintenance history reveals several safety-related incidents, including a tenant safety inspection in 2024 that was completed with no violations, and a complaint about building shaking in 2023 that was found to have no warrant for violation at the time of inspection. Recent health and safety concerns include two 311 complaints regarding tattooing facilities in 2023-2024, one for inadequate equipment and another for an unlicensed artist, both of which were closed with health department involvement.

The building has undergone multiple rodent inspections between 2022 and 2025, with varying results including some periods of rat activity. Historical maintenance records show attention to building structure, with a 2022 violation requiring rust removal and painting of all stories, balconies, and fire escape components, which was certified as corrected in August 2022. The building's heating system received attention in 2020 when an ECB violation was issued regarding boiler room signage, though this was resolved with no penalties.
