1681 3rd Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10128

1681 3rd Avenue is a 30-story, 105-unit residential building constructed in 2016 in the Upper East Side, currently owned by Jason Percy. The building's recent history from 2023-2025 shows multiple complaints and violations related to construction activities, with four separate complaints about unlicensed/illegal work in February 2025, though these were all resolved with fully rescinded stop work orders. The Department of Buildings issued multiple violations in June 2023 for failure to file 2020 external low pressure inspections, though these were dismissed in May 2024.

Historically, the building had some concerns during 2018-2019, including complaints about debris and a rodent-attracting condition, but all of these complaints were resolved with no violations found upon inspection. Significantly, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with no infested units reported in the annual filings from 2021-2024. Regular rodent inspections conducted approximately annually from 2019 through 2025 have all passed.

The building's permit history shows multiple permits issued between 2018-2023 for various construction activities, including plumbing, electrical work, and new building permits. Of particular note is the building's relatively recent pattern of construction-related complaints in 2025, though these were quickly addressed through proper channels, suggesting responsive management to regulatory requirements. The resolution of earlier violations and the building's strong performance in pest control and rodent inspections indicate improved building maintenance practices over time. The absence of bedbug infestations in recent years and the consistent passing of rodent inspections provide some reassurance regarding basic health and safety standards.
