Augrented Insights Report for 425 West 50th Street

425 West 50th Street, also known as Stella Tower, is a 19-story commercial altered Class A building located in Hell's Kitchen, consisting of 51 units and built in 1931. The building has experienced recurring water leak issues, with multiple reports between 2023-2024 indicating problems with slow and heavy leaks, particularly affecting apartment 16D where several Housing Maintenance Code violations remain open as of October 2023. Recent concerns include a December 2024 complaint about indoor air quality due to construction dust.

The property has a history of construction-related issues, with multiple complaints about illegal hotel rooms between 2021-2024, construction safety compliance matters in 2021-2022, and several Department of Buildings Environmental Control Board violations related to construction equipment and scaffolding in 2021. The building's maintenance record shows consistent rodent control compliance, with all inspections passing since 2016. Bedbug reports from 2018 through 2024 indicate no infestations. Major construction and maintenance work has been documented through various permit issuances between 2019-2022, including multiple exterior work permits.

The building has active violations related to building maintenance, including exterior wall conditions and delayed certification of hazardous conditions from 2020-2021, though some previous violations have been resolved. The property manager, Michael Rose, appears to have addressed some issues while others remain ongoing, particularly regarding water leaks and certain maintenance violations. While the building has maintained compliance with several health and safety inspections, the persistence of water-related issues and some open violations suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. The absence of documented pest infestations since 2019 and consistent rodent control compliance are positive indicators of building maintenance in these areas.
