Augrented Insights Report for 420 Riverside Drive

420 Riverside Drive is a 13-story, 104-unit residential building located in Morningside Heights, constructed in 1912 and currently owned by Steven Hoffman. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years, with the most concerning being emergency heat and hot water complaints in December 2020 where inspectors were unable to gain access to apartments for verification.

In 2018, there were multiple electrical lighting failures documented, and earlier that year, an unsanitary condition involving pests was reported, though no violations were found upon inspection. The property has multiple active violations regarding external low-pressure inspection filings dating from 2018-2021 that remain unresolved as of October 2023. While the building has generally passed recent rodent inspections (notable rat activity was recorded in October 2024), there was a single bedbug incident reported in the 2022-2023 filing period.

The building's management has shown recent compliance with Local Law 188/17 inspections, as evidenced by completed inspections in 2023, though there were earlier fines related to failure to file benchmarking reports in 2024. Multiple permits have been issued in the past two years, particularly in late 2023, suggesting ongoing maintenance and improvement work. The building's inspection history shows regular attention to safety requirements, though the pattern of incomplete inspections and missed deadlines for critical filings indicates some management challenges regarding regulatory compliance.
