Augrented Insights Report for 55 3rd Avenue

The 12-story, 55-unit residential building at 55 3rd Avenue in the East Village, owned by Thomas McCartney and constructed in 1986, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, there have been recurring problems with heat and hot water during the winter months of 2024-2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed through HPD in December 2024, and an open Class C violation from January 2024 regarding inadequate heat supply and radiator issues in apartment 705. The building has also faced persistent rodent infestations, with multiple bait applications recorded throughout 2025 and documented rat activity in January and March 2025.

Other concerning issues include a water leak situation investigated in 2023 that was found to have no violations, and a safety-related fire escape concern noted in 2022. The building's environmental and structural compliance history reveals several violations that have been addressed over time. In 2021, violations were recorded regarding building alterations without proper certificates of occupancy and exterior façade maintenance issues.

More recent compliance activity includes a 2024 Class A violation for failing to file an annual bedbug report, though subsequent filings have reported no infestations. The property has undergone regular inspections and required pest control measures, with consistent documentation of rodent activity followed by bait applications. The building's records also show multiple inspections for food establishment-related complaints, primarily regarding nearby commercial spaces, including food poisoning incidents and sanitation concerns in 2023-2024. While many past violations have been resolved, as of October 2023, there remains one active violation regarding energy efficiency score display requirements.
