Augrented Insights Report for 470 Park Avenue

The 17-story, 56-unit New Law Tenement building at 470 Park Avenue, owned by Billy Kess, has experienced several notable issues in recent years, particularly relating to safety and maintenance concerns. Most prominently, there are currently three active violations from 2024-2025 regarding external low-pressure inspection filings, with a similar pattern of violations from 2023 suggesting ongoing compliance issues. In the first half of 2024, serious safety concerns were raised regarding construction practices, with multiple complaints about work without permits and construction safety compliance issues.

Notable violations included improper decking plank spacing, inadequate load-imposed letter maintenance, and scaffolding tie-back deficiencies, resulting in penalties totaling over $8,530. A November 2023 incident involving a worker falling from scaffolding during installation raised significant safety concerns. Recent maintenance issues include a broken window guard reported in February 2024, and previous complaints about mold in late 2022.

The building has a history of heating system complaints, with three reports of heat/hot water issues in December 2018, though these complaints were closed due to lack of access for inspection. While the building has passed rodent inspections in 2010, 2011, and 2012, and has had no reported bedbug infestations in the past seven years, the recent pattern of safety violations and inspection failures remains concerning. The property has also undergone facade work requiring multiple permits in 2020, suggesting ongoing building maintenance and improvements under the current ownership.
