Augrented Insights Report for 105 West 55th Street

105 West 55th Street is a 10-story, 52-unit residential building constructed in 1917, currently owned by Gideon Platt. The property has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues over the past two years, with multiple HPD complaints and violations between 2023 and 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. The building underwent significant maintenance activity in late 2023/early 2024, including the correction of violations in Apartment 9B related to carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, and various repairs in Apartment 9C involving mold remediation, plaster repair, and safety improvements.

Recent inspections from 2025 show ongoing concerns, with a new elevator-related complaint filed in June 2025 and outstanding pest-related violations from November 2024. The building has a documented history of maintenance violations and safety concerns, including multiple elevator-related issues between 2023 and 2025, leading to several ECB violations with associated penalties. Notably, there was a period of unpermitted electrical work and excessive combustible materials in April 2024, though these were resolved through inspections.

The property has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections, with only two instances of rodent activity reported since 2010. Despite the recurring maintenance issues, the building has demonstrated responsiveness to violations, with many being resolved promptly, as evidenced by the various certification dates for corrected violations. The most recent environmental control board violation from August 2024 regarding a car door restrictor is still active as of October 2025, representing the only outstanding safety concern on current record.
