Augrented Insights Report for 1215 5th Avenue

1215 Fifth Avenue is a 16-story, 62-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1926 and currently owned by Jonathan Cagnazzo. The building has experienced recurring plumbing issues, with the most recent emergency complaints in May 2023 involving bathtub/shower and toilet problems, along with water supply issues. A significant set of violations was issued in May 2023 for Apartment 3A, including defective smoke detector and carbon monoxide detection systems, missing toilet bowl, and various bathroom fixture deficiencies.

The building is currently facing multiple active Department of Buildings (DOB) compliance matters, including two active Local Law 188/17 compliance inspections as of October 2024, though recent inspections in 2025 showed no violation warrants. The property has undergone various construction activities, particularly façade work in 2024, during which multiple safety and compliance violations were noted, including issues with scaffolding, construction signage, and safety equipment. There are also several open DOB violations related to missed inspection filings, including external low-pressure inspection requirements from 2023.

The building has maintained good bedbug management records, showing no infestations reported from 2019 through 2024, and has generally passed recent rodent inspections, though there was one failed inspection in 2023. Historical issues include multiple heating and plumbing complaints in 2018-2022, with some resulting in violations, though many complaints were closed without violations being issued. The building's maintenance history shows regular permit issuance for various repairs and maintenance work, with the most recent permits issued in 2023.
