Augrented Insights Report for 540 Park Avenue

540 Park Avenue is a 19-story residential building constructed in 1962, currently owned by John Maibach. The building has experienced several significant issues over the past few years, most notably related to construction safety and facade maintenance. Between 2021 and 2022, there were multiple construction safety complaints, including concerns about falling debris, scaffold safety, and other site conditions that warranted stop-work orders.

Two active facade-related Environmental Control Board violations from 2022 remain on record, concerning the failure to submit required reports and documentation related to exterior wall maintenance. The building has also faced operational challenges, with three Housing Maintenance Code violations between 2021 and 2024 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though recent filings indicate no current infestations as of the 2024 reporting period. The property has maintained a generally positive record in other areas, with successful rodent inspections in multiple years between 2016 and 2019, and no reported issues of infestations from 2023-2024, with only one documented infestation in 2022-2023.

The building has experienced some issues with compliance regarding energy reporting and related violations, though many of these have been dismissed or resolved. Recent 311 service requests show minimal complaints, with only routine food establishment-related issues recorded in 2024 and 2025. The most recent building permit activity was recorded in 2019 for plumbing work. The property has demonstrated responsive management to most regulatory requirements, though there remains a need for attention to the active facade-related violations and historical construction safety concerns.
