Augrented Insights Report for 181 3rd Avenue

181 3rd Avenue is a 133-unit, 9-story residential building completed in 2009 and currently owned by Marc Freud. Recent inspections and violations indicate several safety and compliance issues that require attention. Most notably, as of April 2024, there are multiple open violations related to safety notice requirements, including missing smoke detector requirements, carbon monoxide detector requirements, gas leak procedures, and building registration information.

Additionally, there is an open violation from April 2024 regarding the failure to file the annual bedbug report. The building has also experienced pest-related issues recently, with a housing maintenance code complaint in July 2023 regarding unsanitary conditions and pests, though no violations were found upon inspection. The building's history shows recurring issues with bedbug reporting compliance, with multiple violations between 2021-2024, though a recent filing for the period ending October 2022 shows no infested or re-infested units.

Elevator safety has been a concern in the past, with violations in 2018 related to door position monitoring and door zone restrictor tampering, though these were resolved. The property has faced several violations regarding energy reporting requirements, including failures to file benchmarking reports and display energy efficiency scores between 2021-2024, though many of these violations were subsequently dismissed or confirmed through proper submissions. More recently, rodent activity was noted in October 2024, though a compliance inspection in December 2024 showed passed results, indicating possible successful remediation of the issue.
