Augrented Insights Report for 275 West 96th Street

The Columbia Condominium at 275 West 96th Street is a 32-story, 301-unit building constructed in 1983, currently experiencing several ongoing maintenance and compliance issues as of 2025. Recent incidents of concern include multiple health department interactions in 2025, with a current food poisoning complaint and a resolved case of unsanitary pigeon conditions.

The building has experienced recurring maintenance concerns since 2023, particularly during September 2023 when multiple complaints regarding electric wiring, water leaks, and mold were investigated, though no violations were found. Notably, there are several open Housing Maintenance Code violations from late 2023 regarding failure to properly post safety requirements for smoke detectors, carbon monoxide devices, and heating system access, as well as issues related to elevator maintenance. The building has undergone various construction and maintenance activities, with multiple permits issued between 2022 and 2024 for different types of work, including elevator and plumbing maintenance.

There have been several concerning incidents regarding building safety during work periods, including a 2024 violation for failing to safeguard persons during balcony demolition work. The facility has experienced some infrastructure challenges, as shown by multiple rodent inspections in 2024-2025 with varying results, and active violations related to exterior building maintenance including cracked glass panes noted in 2024. While the building has maintained a zero-infestation record for bedbugs over the past five years, the frequency of both emergency and non-emergency maintenance complaints suggests ongoing challenges with building upkeep and regulatory compliance, particularly regarding timely responses to safety-related violations.
