2 Cooper Square, Manhattan, NY 10003

2 Cooper Square, a 15-story, 133-unit residential building completed in 2009 and currently owned by Anton Aliaj, has experienced recurring issues with heat, hot water, and plumbing systems over the past several years. Most recently, in December 2022, there was a heat and hot water complaint that was temporarily resolved. In April 2021, there was a significant cluster of complaints related to heat/hot water (affecting the entire building) and water supply issues, with multiple violations documented, including inadequate hot and cold water supply problems specifically in apartment 8.

Earlier incidents in 2020 also involved heat and hot water issues affecting the entire building. While a bedbug infestation was reported in 2019 (with four infested units), subsequent annual reports from 2020 through 2024 show zero infestations. The building has consistently passed rodent inspections between 2011 and 2025, indicating effective pest management.

More recent administrative matters include multiple violations issued for failure to file external low pressure inspections between 2018 and 2022, though all were ultimately dismissed. There is currently an active violation from December 2022 regarding the failure to submit the required Cycle 9A report of critical examination for exterior walls, with a penalty of $1,250. The building's maintenance history demonstrates ongoing challenges with infrastructure systems, particularly heating and plumbing, despite regular inspections and prompt reporting by tenants.
