665 10th Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10036

The 8-unit, 5-story old law tenement at 665 10th Avenue in Hell's Kitchen, owned by Jerry Edelman and built in 1910, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues from 2022 through 2025, with five separate emergencies documented in the Housing Maintenance Code Complaints. Most recently, in May 2025, there was a door-related issue that required HPD intervention, and in October 2024, there was a slow water leak complaint that HPD inspectors could not access to verify.

A significant inspection in May 2024 revealed multiple violations in Apartment 2W, including missing carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, hot water supply issues, and problems with self-closing doors. The building's systems have undergone several inspections, with a C-class violation noted for locked access to the heating system door and issues with a building vestibule door's self-closing mechanism, though these were later certified as corrected.

The building has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections from 2019 through 2024, with only one failure in 2019 which was addressed in a subsequent inspection. While bedbug reports have been filed annually from 2021 through 2024, all indicating zero infested or re-infested units, there was an A-class violation in 2022 regarding annual bedbug reporting that was subsequently resolved. The property has demonstrated a pattern of addressing most maintenance issues promptly, though the recurring nature of heat and hot water complaints suggests an ongoing challenge with this particular building system.
