Augrented Insights Report

The 35-unit, 7-story apartment building at 75 Buena Vista Avenue, built in 1931 and currently owned by the Joseph F Mannion Jr Trust, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, there have been recurring fire safety concerns, with multiple violations recorded between 2017 and 2024 related to sprinkler systems, fire escapes, and emergency documentation. The building underwent a fire alarm system upgrade in 2019 to meet 2021 code requirements, though this work appears to have encountered some implementation issues.

More recent concerns include plumbing problems in June 2023, where toilets malfunctioned and caused overflow issues. The building's elevator system has also been problematic, with multiple complaints in 2020 regarding safety concerns, irregular service, and operational failures, though records show some repairs and upgrades were attempted. The property has undergone various infrastructure improvements over the years, including a comprehensive water line replacement in 2018, electrical system upgrades in 2010, and a kitchen and bathroom remodel in 2009.

Historical records show the building has maintained its Art Deco architectural features, though some maintenance concerns have been noted. The property has experienced some building code violations in 2017-2018 that were subsequently abated, including issues with windows, walls, and egress obstructions. Recent fire safety inspections in December 2024 resulted in a violation being issued regarding the highrise sprinkler system compliance schedule, indicating ongoing challenges with maintaining required safety systems.
