Augrented Insights Report for 474 Columbus Avenue

474 Columbus Avenue is a 5-story, 29-unit old law tenement building located in the Upper West Side, built in 1900 and currently owned by Joseph Aizer. The building has experienced several recurring maintenance issues, with the most significant recent problems occurring between 2023-2025, including multiple instances of rodent activity, plumbing issues, and food safety complaints. Notable maintenance concerns include open housing maintenance code violations as of September 2024 for pest infestations (roaches and mice) in Apartment 1F, along with various repairs needed in Apartments 1F and 2B.

The building has also shown persistent rodent challenges, with multiple inspections between 2023-2024 consistently indicating rat activity, though a "Passed" compliance inspection was recorded in December 2024. The property has a documented history of plumbing issues, with several complaints and violations related to sinks, water supply problems, and door/window maintenance between 2022 and 2024. Emergency heating and hot water complaints were recorded in October 2022, affecting both individual units and the entire building.

Food safety has been another concern, with multiple Department of Health and Mental Hygiene complaints in 2025 regarding food establishment issues, including contaminated food and rodent/insect problems. While the building's recent bedbug reporting from 2023-2025 indicates no infestations, the persistent nature of other maintenance issues suggests ongoing challenges with building upkeep. The property has had some serious safety violations in the past, including two significant construction-related violations in 2019 regarding pedestrian protection and construction safety, though these appear to have been resolved.
