Augrented Insights Report for 285 Riverside Drive

285 Riverside Drive is a 15-story, 86-unit residential building constructed in 1926, currently under the ownership of Blair Axel. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years, most notably with its façade and safety systems.

As of May 2024, there are active violations related to exterior wall maintenance, including cracked and spalled masonry on multiple elevations, with associated penalties of $2,500. A 2022 façade inspection (LL11/98) raised safety concerns that remain unresolved through 2024.

The building has also faced multiple Department of Buildings violations regarding tenant safety plans and plumbing issues between 2018 and 2023. While there were documented rodent activity incidents in 2020 (June and July), subsequent inspections through 2024 have shown improvement, with the most recent inspections passing and no rat activity recorded since December 2020. The building's bedbug reporting history from 2019 to 2024 shows no reported infestations, with zero units affected in the most recent three reporting periods (2022-2023, 2023-2024, 2024-2025).
