Augrented Insights Report for 309 Lexington Avenue

The 13-story, 81-unit building at 309 Lexington Avenue in Murray Hill, owned by Joshua Landau, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent months. Most notably, in early 2025, there were multiple complaints about inconsistent heat and hot water, with both apartment-specific and building-wide issues reported between January and February. There are currently two open complaints from late 2024/early 2025, including one regarding unsanitary conditions in garbage/recycling storage areas and another about a slow water leak.

The building has faced facade-related concerns, with two unsafe façade notifications filed in October 2024, though one was resolved by January 2025, and a 2024 inspection found spalling concrete/masonry issues on the north and west elevations. The property has a history of addressing building systems and safety issues, with past complaints about doors/windows and intercom systems being properly closed after inspection. A pattern of heat/hot water complaints emerged in early 2025, with at least four separate incidents reported between January 10 and January 31.

The building's maintenance record shows consistent attention to pest control, with no reported bedbug infestations since 2019, and it has passed all rodent inspections from 2010 through 2025. There are active violations regarding safety inspections and maintenance requirements, including a failure to file the FISP Cycle 9C technical report by February 21, 2024, and an unsafe report filed in December 2024 regarding exterior maintenance issues. While many historical violations have been resolved, the building's recent history suggests ongoing challenges with building systems maintenance and facade upkeep.
