Augrented Insights Report for 205 3rd Avenue

The 20-story, 326-unit residential building at 205 3rd Avenue in Gramercy, owned by Melissa Cafiero and constructed in 1964, has experienced several ongoing maintenance issues that warrant attention. As of March 2025, there is an open complaint regarding paint/plaster issues on walls, with previous door/window problems noted as closed due to lack of access for inspection. The building has a documented history of pest control challenges, including multiple reports of rodent sightings between 2018-2025, though the most recent inspection from May 2025 passed.

Indoor air quality concerns were reported in September 2023, with chemical vapors/gases/odors identified, and there have been multiple complaints regarding ventilation systems in 2023, all of which were investigated but no violations issued. The property has also experienced various maintenance and safety issues in recent years, including mold problems (August 2023), and multiple violations related to plaster and paint conditions in Apartment 6H (2023), as well as historical violations in Apartment 2L (2018) including concerns about water leaks and damaged plaster surfaces. High-pressure inspection violations are currently active from 2023-2024, indicating potential concerns with the building's exterior maintenance.

The building underwent significant work in 2020-2021, during which there were several construction safety compliance issues and multiple violations related to scaffold and sidewalk shed maintenance, though these were ultimately resolved. While there have been bedbug infestations recorded in the past (including one in 2023-2024), the most recent reports show no current infestations. The property has maintained regular rodent inspections, with all but one recent inspection showing no rat activity, indicating some improvement in pest management.
