48 Greenwich Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10011
48 Greenwich Avenue is a five-story, 35-unit residential building constructed in 1872, currently owned by 50 Greenwich Ave Associates, LLC. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most recent heat/hot water complaint in April 2025 suggesting ongoing temperature regulation challenges. Of particular concern are the open violations in apartment 5A established in November 2022, which include multiple sanitary and structural issues such as pest infestations (mice and roaches), defective windows, doors requiring repairs, and problems with wall plaster and paint.
The building has shown persistent issues with sanitation and pest control, as evidenced by multiple HPD and DOHMH complaints between 2022 and 2024, though recent rodent inspections in 2023 and 2024 have passed, indicating some improvement in pest management. The property has faced several emergency maintenance issues, particularly in late 2022, with multiple violations related to heating systems, doors, windows, and general unsanitary conditions. While the building's bedbug reporting records from 2021 through 2024 show no documented infestations, indicating successful prevention efforts in this regard, the frequency of heat and pest-related complaints suggests ongoing maintenance challenges.
The most recent building inspection records (2023-2024) show improvements in pest control and rodent management, though the persistence of heat-related complaints indicates that temperature regulation remains an area requiring attention. The building's 311 service requests and Department of Building complaints demonstrate a pattern of maintenance issues, though the system's resolution responses typically indicate that problems have been addressed. While there is some evidence of improved conditions in recent years, particularly regarding rodent control, the current open violations in apartment 5A and recent heat/hot water complaints suggest that not all maintenance issues have been fully resolved.
