Augrented Insights Report for 401 Amsterdam Avenue

401 Amsterdam Avenue is a 16-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1927 on the Upper West Side, currently managed by Kenneth Rotner. The 75-unit building has experienced several significant issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns relating to ongoing construction safety violations from 2021-2023.

Between 2021 and 2023, multiple citations were issued regarding improper construction practices, including unsafe work platforms, inadequate bracing of sidewalk sheds, and failure to maintain required safety documents, resulting in active penalties totaling over $12,500. Building-wide systems have faced challenges, including a heat and hot water emergency in February 2024 and various water-related issues in 2021. Recent inspections show improvement in pest control, with no current bedbug or rodent infestation reported between 2022-2025, though there were past issues documented in 2022.

The building's maintenance record shows attention to critical infrastructure, with several permits issued for emergency work between 2018 and 2022. While the Department of Buildings has documented several violations regarding construction practices and safety compliance, these have generally been addressed through fines and corrective actions, with some active violations remaining as of 2023. The building has experienced multiple health department inspections relating to food establishments and general sanitation, with most recent complaints properly directed to appropriate agencies for resolution.
