469 Avenue Of The Amer, Manhattan, NY 10011

The three-story, two-family house at 469 Avenue of the Americas in the West Village, dating back to 1842 and currently owned by Tt New York, LP, has experienced several food safety-related incidents over the past few years. Between 2019 and 2024, the building was the subject of multiple Department of Health and Mental Hygiene complaints, including food contamination cases, rodent and insect issues, and at least one reported instance of food poisoning from 2019 that remains in progress as of October 2023.

Notably, there were two food establishment complaints that were only closed in June 2024, one regarding food containing foreign objects and the other concerning rodent/insect/garbage problems. Despite these food safety concerns, the building has maintained a consistently clean record regarding bedbugs, with all five annual reports from 2021 through 2025 (most recent in January 2025) showing zero infestation or eradication cases.

The property has also demonstrated good rodent control, passing all 10 rodent inspections conducted between 2012 and 2024, including the most recent inspection in August 2024. While the building's food establishment issues are certainly notable, it's worth mentioning that rodent inspections have consistently passed and bedbug reports show no infestation history, suggesting effective management in these areas. However, the ongoing food safety complaints and relatively recent closures of food-related service requests suggest this remains an area requiring attention, even if these issues don't directly impact residential units.
