64 Avenue C, Manhattan, NY 10009

64 Avenue C is a 6-story, 16-unit residential building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Gladys Duran. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, with the most concerning being a heat and hot water emergency affecting the entire building in February 2025, which resulted in an HPD violation despite limited access for inspection.

There are ongoing Class A violations as of 2024 and 2023 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, suggesting potential compliance issues with pest management protocols. The building's safety systems have been the subject of multiple inspections, with three separate safety-related complaints regarding smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and cooking gas systems documented in late 2021, though no violations were ultimately issued. The property has a history of mechanical and infrastructure challenges, including three open violations from 2019 related to electrical wiring conditions, gas meter room ventilation, and various boiler issues documented through multiple Environmental Control Board violations.

These violations included problematic electrical systems, inadequate ventilation in the gas meter room, and issues with the building's grounding systems, though many of these were previously resolved with associated penalties. The building's maintenance history shows regular rodent inspections (all passed), and while there were multiple electrical wiring complaints between 2018-2020, most have been resolved. The property also underwent repairs to address various housing maintenance code violations, including work in apartment 1A's bathroom and corrections to the building's bedbug reporting compliance.
