Augrented Insights Report

The 22-story Golden Gateway Center, located at 500-570 Battery Street in the Financial District North, is a multi-family residential building constructed in 1965 containing 416 units. The property has recently undergone significant remodeling work, with numerous units receiving kitchen and bathroom rehabilitations between late 2024 and early 2025, including Units #305, 1219, 1118, 304, 306, 311, 3, 1805, and 415, with associated plumbing and electrical upgrades totaling over $800,000 in improvements. Multiple complaints and violations emerged between 2022-2025, including issues with elevator outages, blocked exits, and fire safety concerns such as alarm system violations and sprinkler system compliance issues.

In mid-2024, there were serious concerns about potential asbestos exposure during construction work, though these complaints were abated within two days. Recent building complaints have included lead paint issues, frequent water shutoffs, and construction noise disturbances. The building experienced multiple fire code violations in recent years, though most have been marked as abated, with the most recent violations in late 2024 relating to sprinkler system compliance and fire command center features. The property has maintained an active renovation schedule, with over 25 renovation permits issued in 2024-2025 focusing on unit upgrades and infrastructure improvements.

Historical records show prior violations regarding elevator access and stairway obstructions, though these issues were resolved. Recent 311 calls from January 2025 indicate ongoing concerns with garbage management and sidewalk accessibility around the property. The building's management has faced scrutiny over construction practices, particularly regarding work without proper permits and concerns about resident safety during renovations. Additionally, there have been recurring issues with the building's elevator system, which is particularly concerning given the property's high-rise status and the presence of senior residents.
