463 Columbus Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10024

463 Columbus Avenue is a 5-story, 12-unit former Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1886 located in Manhattan's Upper West Side. The property, managed by 463 Columbus Avenue Corp., has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2019, with four emergency complaints regarding entire building heating problems between March 2-3, 2019, and another heat-related incident in October 2019, all of which were subsequently resolved according to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development.

More recently, in 2023, the building faced facade maintenance issues, with a Department of Buildings Environmental Control Board violation recorded on May 12, 2023, noting cracked bricks near the entrance and issues with a fifth-floor window air conditioner; however, no penalties were imposed for this violation. The building has demonstrated good pest management practices over the years, with six consecutive annual bedbug reports (2019-2024) showing zero infested units or eradication cases.

Regular rodent inspections have been conducted, with the most recent three (2022-2024) passing successfully, indicating effective pest control measures in place. The building's maintenance record shows prompt response to heating issues when reported, though the frequency of these complaints in 2019 suggests this may have been an ongoing concern during that period. Looking at the broader picture, the building has faced some maintenance challenges typical of its age, particularly regarding facade and heating systems, but maintains a strong record of pest control and generally responsive management to reported issues, with the most recent complaints being resolved in a timely manner.
