Augrented Insights Report for 626 1st Avenue

626 1st Avenue is a 47-story, 761-unit residential building located in Murray Hill, owned by Joshua Gotlib and completed in 2014. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues in late 2024, with multiple emergency complaints filed in December 2024, though authorities were unable to access units for inspection.

Other notable recent maintenance concerns include air quality problems (chemical odors in December 2024 and sewage odors in November 2024), a window frame issue (October 2024), and pest infestations (October 2024) with associated violations. The building has documented electrical issues with power outages and lighting problems in September 2024, and the elevator went through maintenance issues around the same time. The property has several open housing violations as of October 2024, primarily associated with Apartment W7A, including requirements to repaint specific areas and address a roach infestation.

Historical data shows ongoing challenges with rat activity, with inspections revealing this issue in 2020, 2021, and 2022, though a recent inspection in May 2025 passed compliance. The building has four active Environmental Control Board violations from 2018 related to flood safety requirements in a flood zone, including missing flood vents and barriers. While the building has maintained records showing no bedbug infestations since 2020, the property has experienced various maintenance issues over the years, including problems with self-closing doors, elevator functionality, and multiple service requests that required tenant follow-up for inspections.
