Augrented Insights Report for 1761 Amsterdam Avenue

1761 Amsterdam Avenue is a 5-story, 13-unit residential building constructed in 1926, currently owned by Tom Grainger. The building has been experiencing persistent heating system issues throughout 2025, with multiple complaints filed through 311 and HPD regarding lack of heat and hot water, particularly during February-March 2025, though inspections often resulted in access issues.

In October 2024, several serious violations were documented in Apartment 1, including lead paint hazards, pest infestations (roaches and mice), and various painting and maintenance deficiencies. More recent structural concerns became apparent in 2025, with emergency violations issued in June 2025 regarding building facade stability, documentation of dislodged stone headers, stucco issues, and concerns about the rear fire escape structure.

The building has a history of rat activity as evidenced by multiple rodent inspections from 2023-2025, though recent inspections in May 2025 show compliance. Two significant construction-related complaints were received in June 2025 regarding the building's structural condition following adjacent construction/excavation work. While the building has passed recent rodent inspections, the combination of heating system failures, structural concerns, and past pest issues raises significant maintenance and safety considerations for residents.
