Augrented Insights Report for 1280 3rd Avenue

1280 Third Avenue is a 20-story, 120-unit residential building in the Upper East Side, constructed in 1966 and currently owned by Melissa Cafiero. The property has exhibited several significant issues in recent years, particularly regarding building maintenance compliance.

As of mid-2025, there remains an active violation related to the failure to file the 2018 External Low Pressure Inspection report, issued in June 2023. The building has faced recurring challenges with maintaining proper documentation of energy benchmarking and external inspections, though some violations from 2024 were dismissed after confirming submission. Recent residential concerns include multiple complaints regarding food establishment violations related to pets/animals between 2024-2025, as well as a heat and hot water issue reported in January 2022 that was resolved promptly.

The building has experienced periodic bedbug infestations, with the most recent report from December 2024 showing no current infestations, though there was one documented case in 2023. Regular rodent inspections have consistently shown compliance, with the most recent inspection from December 2019 passing successfully. The property has maintained an active record of building permits, particularly for exterior work, with multiple permits issued between 2018-2020, indicating ongoing maintenance and improvements to the building's infrastructure.
