Augrented Insights Report for 485 Columbus Avenue

The 5-story, 16-unit building at 485 Columbus Avenue, owned by Joseph Annunziatajr, is an 1887 Old Law Tenement located in Manhattan's Upper West Side. The property has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years, most notably a concerning pattern of heat and hot water problems in early 2020, with multiple complaints between February and May reporting inadequate services, though some were subsequently resolved.

There were also recurring problems with the building's intercom system in summer 2020, with multiple complaints leading to violations regarding the maintenance of the bell/buzzer/intercom system. In 2020, the building was cited for various violations including improper garbage storage, maintenance issues in public areas, and inadequate fire safety materials, with the Department of Buildings noting an active ECB violation related to improper gas utility maintenance in the ground floor restaurant.

More recently, a rodent-related complaint was filed in 2022-2024, though the 2024 rodent inspection passed. Notably, the building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug-free status since 2018, with no reported infestations, and recent inspections (2023-2024) have generally passed without significant findings. The most recent bedbug report from December 2024 indicated zero infested or eradicated units, suggesting effective pest management practices.
