Augrented Insights Report for 525 West End Avenue

525 West End Avenue is a 13-story, 128-unit New Law Tenement building located on Manhattan's Upper West Side, constructed in 1913 and currently owned by Stephen Harnik. The property has experienced persistent heating and hot water issues in early 2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed through HPD between January and February 2025, suggesting an ongoing building-wide problem.

The building received three Class C violations in December 2024 related to defective fire door latches in the north basement and 3rd-floor compactor closet, and additional maintenance issues were documented in apartment 4C in May 2024, including multiple electrical outlet problems and a missing kitchen ceiling light fixture. Recent departmental inspections show some rodent activity in early 2024, though an inspection in January 2025 passed. The building's systems appear to have undergone various inspections and repairs over the past few years.

A facade safety notice was issued in September 2022, and construction-related complaints were filed in 2023 and 2024, though no violations were found during those inspections. The building has maintained regular bedbug reporting, with only one documented infestation in 2023-2024, while previous years showed no significant patterns of infestation. Multiple permits have been issued since 2018 for various building maintenance work, including plumbing and electrical repairs, with the most recent permits dating back to 2021-2022 for exterior restoration and related work.
