Augrented Insights Report for 55 Central Park West

The 19-story, 109-unit apartment building at 55 Central Park West, owned by Robin Baum, has been in operation since 1930 and has experienced several notable incidents in recent years. The building currently has multiple open violations identified in July 2023 related to faulty windows and damaged plaster in apartment 2C2FLR, specifically concerning broken glass lites and plastered surfaces requiring repairs. Window-related issues have recurred, with both emergency (2024) and non-emergency (2022) complaints about window frames being reported.

Internal air quality was briefly a concern in 2022 with chemical odor complaints, and there was one incident of mobile food vendor activity in late 2023. The building has undergone extensive renovation and maintenance work, as evidenced by multiple permit issuances between 2021 and 2024, all categorized as "EW" (emergency work). Noteworthy safety concerns emerged during 2022-2023, including several construction safety compliance actions, though most complaints were resolved upon inspection.

Environmental Control Board violations recorded in 2022-2021 involved issues with scaffolding and fire extinguishers, each resulting in fines that were subsequently resolved. The bedbug reporting history shows zero infestations since 2019, and recent rodent inspections in 2023-2025 have consistently passed, with only one failure noted in April 2022. The building's maintenance records indicate regular attention to health and safety compliance, with most recent violations being addressed, though some open violations remain as of 2023-2024.
