20 River Terrace, Manhattan, NY 10282

20 River Terrace, located in Battery Park City, is a 27-story residential building constructed in 2002 containing 293 units and currently owned by Russell Heigel. The building is currently undergoing investigation for mold issues following a complaint filed in October 2023, which the Department of Housing Preservation and Development inspected but found no violations. Another ongoing concern is related to construction lead dust entering apartments, reported in February 2023.

The building has undergone multiple tenant safety inspections in recent years, with five inspections between January 2023 and February 2025, all of which found no violations. The property has experienced several maintenance and compliance issues over the years, including a 2018 elevator maintenance violation regarding brake maintenance and stopping heights, which was resolved without penalty. In 2023, there was a violation issued for failure to file the 2018 external low pressure inspection, though this violation was later dismissed.

The building's pest control history shows bedbug infestations were reported in two units during the 2022-2023 period, though previous years showed either no infestations or successfully eradicated cases. Rodent inspections conducted regularly from 2010 to 2021 consistently passed. The building has maintained good safety oversight, with multiple permits issued between 2020 and 2022 for various maintenance and repair work, including emergency work in 2021 and 2022, suggesting ongoing maintenance and compliance efforts by the current management.
