Augrented Insights Report for 493 3rd Avenue

493 3rd Avenue is a 4-story, 4-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Kips Bay, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by 33rd Street Investors Vi LLC. The building has experienced recurrent heating and hot water issues in recent years, with three emergency complaints registered between December 2024 and February 2025.

Additionally, the property has a notable history of sanitation concerns, including two mold-related complaints in 2023 and multiple plumbing-related issues in 2021. The building has undergone various inspections and received violations related to door security and maintenance, particularly in 2023, when self-closing door issues in the public hall and apartment 3E were documented, along with a vestibule door violation. The property has shown some improvements in recent years, as evidenced by its bedbug reports, which have consistently shown zero infestation counts since 2019, and the most recent rodent inspections indicate mixed results, with passed inspections in early 2025 but previous rodent activity noted in October 2024.

Historical records from 2021 show multiple maintenance issues being addressed, including plumbing work and repairs to the bell and intercom system in apartment 4W. The building's management has responded to various complaints over the years, though there have been instances where inspectors could not gain access to units for verification. The property has maintained some compliance with Housing Maintenance Code requirements, with violations being closed properly when addressed, such as the 2023 violations regarding door repairs.
