Augrented Insights Report for 721 Columbus Avenue

721 Columbus Avenue is a 32-story, 246-unit residential building constructed in 1969, currently owned by 95 W95 Bh LLC. The property has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in 2025, including multiple water leak complaints, significant mold problems, and flooring defects, with most recent violations occurring in June 2025. The building has also faced persistent pest control challenges, particularly with rodent activity, as evidenced by multiple bait applications and inspections throughout 2025.

There are open housing maintenance code violations from December 2024 related to hot water availability in apartment 26E and access to the heating system boiler room, as well as multiple elevator-related complaints in 2025. The building's history shows recurring infrastructure concerns, including elevator problems with multiple complaints filed in 2025 regarding devices on the property. Previous inspections revealed safety issues, such as missing smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in 2024, as well as unresolved flooring and sanitary condition violations.

A notable sequence of events in 2022-2024 involved violations related to elevator maintenance, including a lack of proper sprinkler system installation in the laundry room and other safety concerns, though many of these violations were eventually resolved. The building's bedbug reporting history shows minimal recent infestations, with only one reported case in the 2021-2022 period, though there were six units affected in 2019. Inspection records from 2025 indicate ongoing challenges with rodent control, requiring regular bait applications and inspections.
