637 10th Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10036
The five-story, 14-unit Old Law Tenement building at 637 10th Avenue, owned by Peter Giaimo, has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, with particular concerns about heating and water systems. Most notably, there were two emergency heat/hot water complaints filed in late December 2024, which HPD was unable to inspect due to access issues. The building has also faced multiple maintenance challenges in 2024, including issues with paint/plaster on walls and ceilings, flooring problems, and pest infestations, with complaints filed in August 2024.
While violations regarding bedbug reporting were noted in 2018-2019, and the building faces active ECB violations from 2021-2022 regarding facade maintenance with significant penalties of up to $25,000, more recent filings show zero infested units from 2021 through 2024. The property has passed rodent inspections in 2016, 2019, 2020, and 2024, though there were some failures in 2016 requiring remediation. Building maintenance records show ongoing attention to various issues, with multiple complaints closed without inspection due to access problems.
The building's facade appears to be a significant concern, with several active violations related to brick wall conditions and required repairs. While the bedbug situation seems to have stabilized with no reported infestations since 2019-2020, the building's age (constructed in 1901) and numerous maintenance requests suggest ongoing challenges with maintaining the property. Additionally, multiple housing maintenance code inspections have been conducted, though many complaints were closed without finding violations, primarily due to access issues for inspectors.
