Augrented Insights Report for 12 West 27th Street

The 18-story building at 12 West 27th Street, owned by Stephen Meringoff and constructed in 1913, has experienced several significant incidents and patterns of maintenance over recent years. The property has undergone regular facade maintenance, with multiple inspections and repairs required under Local Law 11/98, including a 2023 inspection that found no violations.

Between 2019 and 2022, there were several environmental control board violations related to construction safety and compliance, including issues with scaffolding installation and barrier maintenance, resulting in fines totaling approximately $5,425, all of which have been resolved. The building's construction activity from 2020-2022 drew multiple complaints and violations, though most inspections found no warrantable violations, with only one stop-work order issued and subsequently rescinded. The building has maintained compliance with rodent inspections since 2010, passing all inspections under the NYC Department of Health.

Recent months have seen building permits issued in July 2023 for various improvements, suggesting ongoing maintenance and upgrades. The property has been generally responsive to violations, with most being dismissed upon re-inspection, though there have been some patterns of delayed compliance noted. The historical record shows consistent attention to facade maintenance and safety compliance, though there have been periodic issues with construction-related activities and documentation requirements, particularly during the 2020-2022 period.
