Augrented Insights Report for 2521 Broadway

2521 Broadway is a 20-story, 51-unit Class A residential building located in Manhattan's Upper West Side, completed in 2001 and currently owned by Christopher Schmidt. The building has experienced recent recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, with emergency complaints logged in February 2025 that required HPD inspections, though inspectors faced access challenges in some cases. In 2024, multiple maintenance issues were reported and investigated, including plumbing problems with toilets and sinks, wall and ceiling plaster concerns, and door frame issues, with some violations being issued.

The property has a history of construction-related compliance issues, particularly noted between 2018-2022, with multiple Construction Safety Compliance complaints leading to violations and fines, though most were resolved promptly. More recent violations include active issues from 2024 regarding failure to file external low-pressure inspections and display energy efficiency scores, which remain unresolved as of now. The building's maintenance history shows consistent attention to pest control, with recent rodent inspections in 2023-2024 passing or receiving bait applications, though there were higher eradication counts noted in earlier years (2018-2020).

Bedbug reports between 2018-2024 show minimal infestations, with most years reporting zero infested units. The property has faced several Housing Maintenance Code violations over the years, including a significant issue in 2024 regarding defective self-closing doors in apartment 11T. The building has undergone various exterior work projects evidenced by multiple permit issuances between 2018-2021, though the specific nature of these works requires further investigation through building department records. While the building is relatively new, the recurring issues with basic services like heat and water, combined with active violations regarding energy efficiency documentation, suggest ongoing maintenance challenges that require monitoring.
