Augrented Insights Report for 980 Avenue Of The Amer

980 Avenue of the Americas is a 24-story, 380-unit residential building constructed in 1986 and currently owned by Frank Scaffa. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, particularly in early 2024 when multiple complaints were filed regarding both apartment-specific and building-wide problems, resulting in HPD inspections and some violations. While many of these complaints were addressed, one violation remains open as of October 2023 for hot water issues in apartment 1114.

The building has also faced several sanitation challenges, including pest control issues in 2023-2024 and concerns about garbage/recycling storage in 2024, though inspections did not result in any violations. Recent activity at the property has included multiple construction and safety-related complaints, particularly in late 2024 and early 2025. These involved work without permits, construction safety compliance issues, and problems with scaffolding. The Department of Buildings issued several citations related to these matters, though most were resolved or dismissed.

The building's management has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing zero reported infestations since 2019. Elevator and construction-related safety inspections continue to be monitored, with the most recent violation regarding multiple devices on property being addressed in May 2025. Historical records from 2019-2023 show varied results for rodent inspections, with some failures noted in 2016, though more recent inspections have passed. Regular permits for maintenance and repairs have been issued, with the most recent being in January 2025.
