Augrented Insights Report for 620 Columbus Avenue

620 Columbus Avenue is a 21-story, 231-unit residential building located in Manhattan's Upper West Side, constructed in 1986 and currently owned by David Bernhardt. The property has experienced recurring pest and sanitation issues over the past few years, including multiple complaints about unsanitary pigeon conditions and rodent sightings between 2024-2025. Recent health-related complaints include a sewage odor in June 2025 and earlier complaints about indoor air quality.

The building has faced several maintenance challenges, with violations documented for mold, including an emergency mold complaint in December 2023, standing water issues, and various structural concerns. In 2024, significant concerns were raised about the building facade, with an active violation issued for spalled masonry above windows on the east elevation. The building's maintenance history reveals persistent problems with building systems and safety features.

In 2021-2022, there were violations related to smoke detector and carbon monoxide alarm compliance in apartment 9C, and in 2021-2022, multiple maintenance issues were documented, including problems with walls, flooring, and windows. Historical records show earlier violations regarding elevator service in 2018, though most permit-related complaints from 2020 show no violations warranting penalties. The building has undergone regular inspections for bedbugs, with the most recent reports showing no infestations in 2023-2024, though there were three reported cases in 2022-2023 that were addressed. The property's rodent inspection history between 2023 and 2025 indicates fluctuating results, with some recent inspections failing for "Other Reasons," suggesting ongoing challenges with pest management.
