Augrented Insights Report for 425 3rd Avenue

425 3rd Avenue is a 9-story, 102-unit residential building in Kips Bay, owned by Martin Scharf and constructed in 1967. The building has experienced several recurrent maintenance issues, with the most significant being multiple plumbing-related complaints in July 2024 involving toilets, sinks, and bathtub/shower facilities, as well as a building-wide heat and hot water complaint in December 2024, none of which could be inspected due to lack of access. Housing Maintenance Code Violations from 2023-2024 indicate ongoing maintenance challenges, including a Class A violation from May 2023 related to inadequate painting in Apartment 9M, and various Class C violations regarding self-closing doors in common areas, handrail security, and bathroom tile repair requirements.

The building's Department of Buildings (DOB) history shows numerous construction-related complaints, with five instances in 2024 (including 2025) where inspectors were unable to gain access to investigate. Environmental Control Board violations from 2023-2024 include concerns about building maintenance and elevator functionality, with a notable ECB violation from November 2023 documenting a vertical wall crack with water stains in Apartment 9M. The building's pest control history shows occasional bedbug infestations, with one documented case in 2021, though recent reports (2022-2024) indicate no current infestations.

Rodent inspections have generally passed, with only one failure noted in 2020. The property has experienced various maintenance and compliance issues over the years, including a 2022 violation for blocking egress with heavy boxes on the 9th floor, and multiple complaints about debris and construction practices in recent years. The most recent complaint regarding construction work beyond approved plans was filed in May 2025 and remains active as of July 2025.
