Augrented Insights Report for 541 Lexington Avenue

541 Lexington Avenue, a 17-story Class B building constructed in 1929 and currently owned by Ryan Maccluskey, has experienced several notable issues in recent years. Most concerning is the building's pattern of bedbug reporting violations from 2021 to 2024, with the most recent violation in April 2024 remaining open, suggesting ongoing non-compliance with annual reporting requirements.

The building has also been cited for numerous facade-related violations, including two active ECB violations from 2024 regarding failure to file required facade reports and a past unsafe facade complaint from 2021. There are multiple active Department of Buildings violations related to energy benchmarking reporting requirements spanning from 2020 to the present, indicating persistent non-compliance with energy reporting obligations.

Additional historical issues include an elevator accident in 2019, illegal conversion violations in 2018, and a series of complaints and violations regarding sidewalk shed/safety scaffold conditions between 2021 and 2024, including a 2024 complaint about inadequate conditions and an earlier 2023 complaint resulting in an Oath violation. The building has maintained generally good rodent inspection results, passing all inspections from 2010 to the present, and has some documented permits for work in 2018 and 2020. While the building's overall condition shows multiple maintenance and reporting issues, it has demonstrated compliance with most safety and rodent inspection requirements, though the persistent nature of the bedbug reporting violations and facade-related issues may be of concern to residents.
