Augrented Insights Report for 1223 Lexington Avenue

The 14-story residential building at 1223 Lexington Avenue, owned by Jordan Merson, has 60 units and was constructed in 1961. The property currently has two notable open pest-related complaints filed with HPD in March 2025, with one still pending inspection and the other having been closed due to lack of access for inspection. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations over the past seven years, with all annual reports showing zero infested or re-infested units.

Regular rodent inspections between 2011 and 2021 consistently passed without violations. Recent significant issues include two active ECB violations from August 2024 related to parking structure maintenance and public safety concerns, each carrying a $2,500 penalty. The property has experienced multiple compliance issues in recent years, including construction-related citations in 2021 and 2020, though most were subsequently resolved.

Historical records show recurring violations related to failure to certify corrections on immediately hazardous violations, with the most recent being from October 2024. The building has also faced challenges with utility management, evidenced by violations for failing to file required energy benchmarking reports in 2022-2023. While the property has had various maintenance and compliance issues over the years, it has also demonstrated prompt response to most violations, as evidenced by the resolution of several construction-related citations within reasonable timeframes.
