50 2nd Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10003
50 2nd Avenue is a 6-story, 10-unit residential building constructed in 1899, currently owned by Robert Proto. The property has demonstrated consistent compliance with health and safety regulations, with regular rodent inspections passing every year since 2019 and no bedbug infestations reported in the past six consecutive annual filings (2019-2024). While there were minor maintenance issues reported in late 2018 regarding wall damage and water leaks, both complaints were investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development and closed without violations.
The building has been subject to several housing maintenance code violations between 2020-2024, primarily regarding documentation requirements. These included violations related to bedbug reporting (2022-2024) and various safety notice postings including smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector, and gas leak procedures in December 2020. These violations were subsequently addressed and closed, with the most recent bedbug report from December 2024 indicating no infested or previously infested units.
The property experienced two complaints related to COVID-19 executive orders in May 2020, though inspections found no violations. More recently, there were two significant issues in 2023: a complaint about building vibration in January (which was inspected and found to have no violations) and a complaint regarding work without a permit in November (referred to the Department of Consumer Affairs). The building's permit history shows an electrical work permit was issued in April 2020. The most recent rodent inspection in April 2025 was passed, continuing the property's strong record of sanitary compliance.
