Augrented Insights Report for 5601 Riverdale Avenue

5601 Riverdale Avenue is a 6-story, 115-unit cooperative building constructed in 1954, currently owned by David Lipson. The property has experienced recurring pest issues, with multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions and pests between 2023 and 2025, including recent reports of rodent activity in both March 2025 and May 2025. While some of these complaints were investigated, HPD inspectors frequently encountered access issues that prevented proper inspection. The building has also faced infrastructure challenges, as evidenced by two simultaneous immediate emergency plumbing/water supply complaints in June 2025.

Historical records show housing maintenance code violations in 2022 involving defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 7T, as well as rodent infestation issues in the same unit. Apartment 4L had multiple documented repairs needed in 2018, including water leak problems and issues with plastered surfaces in kitchen and bathroom. The building has undergone several inspections for compliance with various regulations, including Elevator Safety and Local Law 188/17, with some violations noted. A notable elevator safety violation was recorded in 2018 regarding tampering with the door zone restrictor.

Recent bedbug reporting indicates one infested dwelling unit in the 2024-2025 period, though previous years showed no such incidents. The property has a documented history of rat activity, with inspections in 2023 and 2025 confirming ongoing issues. Despite these challenges, the building has had periods of compliance with various regulations, as evidenced by multiple permits issued for repair and maintenance work between 2018 and 2019, and some inspections resulting in "No Violation Warranted" findings. The building's current condition, as of July 2025, shows continuing concerns with pest control and plumbing issues, while previous violations regarding safety equipment and maintenance have been addressed. The property has undergone regular government inspections and monitoring for various compliance requirements, though access issues have sometimes hindered thorough investigation of reported problems.
