Augrented Insights Report for 1 University Place

1 University Place is a 21-story, 263-unit residential building constructed in 1930 and currently owned by Charles Alpert. The building has experienced several maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with the most significant current concern being an open complaint about the intercom system (as of January 2025). During 2024, the property faced multiple challenges related to building systems and safety, including issues with garbage/recycling storage, water supply problems, and various door-related concerns.

Notable violations from 2024 include defective self-closing doors in apartments 6B and 20N, along with a history of intercom system problems affecting multiple floors. The building underwent facade work in 2023-2024, during which several safety-related violations were noted regarding scaffolding and work platforms, though these were ultimately resolved with penalties imposed. The property's elevator system has been the subject of ongoing attention, with active violations dating back to 2019 related to failure to correct defects from previous inspections.

While the building has maintained regular rodent inspections with mostly passing results, there have been some concerns about vermin control, particularly in 2020 when one inspection failed. The building's maintenance record shows periodic issues with water supply systems, door mechanisms, and safety features like fire escapes, though many of these complaints have been addressed through inspections and corrective actions. Recent inspections have shown improvements, with no active bedbug infestations reported since 2021 and successful rodent inspections in 2023 and 2024. The building has maintained reasonable compliance with housing maintenance codes, with most violations being addressed and closed through proper certification processes.
