386 Columbus Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10024

The 18-story, 24-unit residential building at 386 Columbus Avenue, owned by Karen Sullivan and constructed in 1985, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. The most pressing concern is the building's active status of multiple violations related to external low-pressure inspection filing requirements for the years 2019 and 2022, as well as a violation for "swamp conditions" issued in November 2023.

The building has also faced recent heating system challenges, with a heat/hot water complaint filed by a tenant in January 2024, which was subsequently verified and addressed by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development. Despite these maintenance concerns, the building has maintained a generally clean record in other areas. There have been no recorded bedbug infestations in the past seven reporting periods from 2019-2024, and all rodent inspections since 2015 have resulted in "Passed" ratings, indicating effective pest control and sanitation practices.

The property has also been subject to mobile food vendor inspections in 2023 and 2024, though these are external to the building's main operations. A 2020 complaint regarding permits was inspected and found to have no violations at the time. While the building has experienced some recent mechanical system challenges, particularly with heating and inspection compliance, it has maintained good records in terms of pest control and general building hygiene.
