Augrented Insights Report for 420 West 51st Street

420 West 51st Street is a 4-story, 12-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Hell's Kitchen, built in 1910 and currently owned by Albert Myers. The property has experienced recurring indoor air quality issues over the past two years, with multiple reports of chemical vapors/odors in early 2023 and construction-related dust contamination in late 2024. More recently, in 2025, there was an asbestos complaint investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, though no violations were found.

The building has seen significant construction activity in recent years, with several complaints about work being performed without permits, though inspections in 2024 found no violations warranting action. The building has faced various maintenance challenges, including a notable emergency mold issue in late 2023 that took about two months to resolve, and ongoing concerns about common area lead dust in 2024 which remains unresolved as of October 2023. Multiple heating system emergencies were reported between 2018-2022, though these appear to have been addressed.

Inspections from 2022-2024 revealed several Class A violations related to building maintenance, including failure to file annual bedbug reports and issues with firestopping compliance. However, bedbug reports filed consistently from 2021-2024 indicate no reported infestations. The building has maintained good rodent control, passing all inspections since 2016, and has generally addressed major infrastructure issues such as plumbing and heating systems, as evidenced by the resolution of multiple emergency complaints through inspection verification of corrections.
