Augrented Insights Report for 305 2nd Avenue

305 2nd Avenue is a 10-story, 127-unit commercial building located in Gramercy, owned by Joshua Goldberg and constructed in 1950. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues since late 2023, with eight building-wide complaints documented between October 2024 and January 2025, almost all of which resulted in HPD being unable to gain access for inspection.

The building currently has three active Department of Buildings violations from 2022-2023 related to facade maintenance, including issues with the cornice and parapet, and dangerous wiring conditions. Multiple emergency complaints regarding heat and hot water issues were filed throughout 2024, and in March 2024, violations were issued concerning safety concerns in a specific apartment (702) related to unsafe electrical wiring. Recent records indicate some maintenance and compliance efforts, with the building passing rodent inspections in recent years and maintaining a clean bedbug record over the past four years, with no reported infestations.

The property has undergone various repair work evident through multiple permit issuances between 2020 and 2022, including elevator-related work and exterior maintenance. The most pressing current concerns appear to be the recurring heat and hot water service issues, active violations related to building facade maintenance, and electrical safety concerns. The building has also undergone multiple tenant safety inspections in 2024, with most resulting in no violations being found.
