Augrented Insights Report for 542 Parkside Avenue

542 Parkside Avenue, a 6-story, 42-unit residential building constructed in 1930, has experienced persistent maintenance challenges in recent years. The building is currently facing multiple rodent-related issues, with the most recent complaints in 2025 documenting rat sightings and conditions attracting rodents, despite ongoing bait application and inspection efforts showing "Rat Activity" as recently as May 2025.

Apartment D7 has been identified with several significant open violations from December 2024, including issues with kitchen plaster surfaces, cabinets, bathroom tiles, and a noted pest infestation involving both roaches and mice. The building has also faced recurring elevator service issues, with multiple complaints and violations regarding single device operation and no alternate service between 2020-2025, resulting in active Environmental Control Board violations related to elevator safety features. Recent maintenance history reveals several water-related problems, including a "heavy flow" water leak complaint in June 2025 that resulted in a summons, alongside previous heating and hot water emergencies affecting the entire building in early 2025.

The property has documented issues with building systems and safety equipment, including non-functioning smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in D7, though there are no recent reports of bedbug infestations. The building maintains an active status for several DOB violations from 2019-2023, including failures to file required inspection reports and display energy efficiency scores. While there have been multiple repair permits issued between 2018-2019, the persistence of these maintenance issues suggests ongoing challenges in the building's management and maintenance response systems.
