Augrented Insights Report for 661 Amsterdam Avenue

661 Amsterdam Avenue is a 6-story, 91-unit residential building constructed in 1940 and currently owned by Andrew Gold. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and compliance issues over recent years, with the most pressing concerns involving a pattern of plumbing and water-related problems.

Between 2021-2022, there were multiple complaints and violations regarding heating, hot water, and plumbing issues, particularly affecting bathroom fixtures (bathtubs/showers, toilets) across several units. Apartment 4D on the 4th floor appears to have experienced the most extensive maintenance issues, including problems with water fixtures, bathroom and kitchen structures, and various deficiencies documented in multiple violation notices from 2022.

More recently, in 2024, there have been two active violations related to "swarm conditions" and an "unsafe report," though specific details about these issues were not provided. The ground floor of the building has faced challenges with unauthorized commercial use, as evidenced by multiple Environmental Control Board violations in 2024, suggesting illegal occupancy as a non-compliant physical treatment establishment known as "Renewing Spa 2." The building has consistently passed rodent inspections every year from 2016 to 2024, and there have been no documented bedbug infestations since the 2019-2020 filing period, with all subsequent reports indicating zero infested or eradicated units.
