Augrented Insights Report for 1068 Lexington Avenue

1068 Lexington Avenue is a 15-story, 99-unit residential building located in Manhattan's Upper East Side, constructed in 1961 and currently owned by Steve Hoffman. The property has experienced recurring pest management challenges, with the most recent 311 service request from April 2025 regarding unsanitary conditions and pests still remaining open. Between 2018 and 2022, there were multiple documented rodent sightings, though inspections by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) in 2022 and 2020 did not result in violations.

The building's facade underwent significant attention in 2019-2020, with eight environmental control board violations issued against 136 Commercial Associates, primarily focusing on failure to maintain the exterior building facade and safety concerns during facade work, though these violations were ultimately resolved. The property has maintained a consistent record of addressing bedbug concerns, with reports showing zero infested units from 2019 through 2024. Active rodent management appears to be ongoing, with multiple bait applications recorded throughout 2022-2023.

The building has received various permits across multiple years for maintenance and repair work, with the most recent permits issued in 2022-2023 for exterior work (EW) and plumbing (PL) tasks. Several Department of Buildings violations from 2019-2020 remain active, though specific details are not provided in the available data. The building's recent history shows ongoing maintenance efforts, particularly regarding pest control and facade preservation, with regular inspections and permits indicating active management of the property's condition.
