430 Amsterdam Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10024

430 Amsterdam Avenue is a 5-story, 20-unit residential building constructed in 1897, currently owned by 430 Amsterdam Partners Llc in Manhattan's Upper West Side. The property has experienced several concerning issues over the past few years, particularly between 2018-2024, including multiple Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) complaints regarding food establishment violations, with reports of foreign objects in food (2019), rodents/insects/garbage (2018), and spoiled food (2018).

The building has also faced significant housing maintenance challenges, particularly in 2018 when multiple violations were recorded related to defective fire escapes requiring replacement of metal treads on various balconies, as well as other critical safety and compliance issues including missing gas leak notice postings and inadequate signage. While the building has maintained an active bedbug reporting record showing no infestations from 2021-2024, more recent concerns include a 2023 violation for failure to file external low pressure inspection documentation and some temporary rodent activity as noted in 2022 inspections. The building's inspection and violation history shows a pattern of recurring compliance issues, though many have been resolved through subsequent inspections or correction notices.

Particularly noteworthy is the consistent passing of recent rodent inspections from 2022-2025, suggesting improved pest management, and the building's most recent bedbug reporting period (2024-2025) showing no infestations. The building has been proactive in addressing safety concerns, as evidenced by the issuance of various permits and prompt response to violation notices when they occur. However, the property has also faced some regulatory challenges, including a notable egress violation in 2019 regarding an obstructed exit passageway in the lobby/hallway, which resulted in Environmental Control Board penalties.
