Augrented Insights Report for 1596 York Avenue

1596 York Avenue is a 22-story, 233-unit Class A residential building located in the Upper East Side, constructed in 1968 and currently owned by East 85th Realty LLC. The building has experienced consistent bedbug activity over the past several years, with documented infestations in 2019, 2020, 2021, and most recently in 2023-2024, though all affected units were reportedly treated and eradicated the following year.

The building's elevator systems faced significant safety violations in June 2021, with multiple issues including problems with the sight guard, alarm systems, emergency lights, and counterweight cables, though these were resolved without imposed penalties. Recent health department involvement includes multiple inspections in 2025 related to food establishment and pet/animal concerns, with one complaint currently under investigation as of June 2025. The building has maintained generally good rodent control, with consistent passing inspections from 2016 through 2023, though there was one instance of "Rat Activity" noted in October 2016, which appears to be an anomaly in an otherwise clean record.

Environmental Control Board violations were documented in June 2021 regarding elevator systems, but these were resolved promptly. The property has a history of responding to and resolving pest control issues, as evidenced by the eradication of affected units following bedbug infestations. The most recent bedbug report for 2024 shows no current infestations, marking a potentially improving trend in this regard.
