1073 1st Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10022
1073 1st Avenue is a 6-story, 22-unit residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Michael Guarino. The property has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, in March 2024, violations were identified related to carbon monoxide detector compliance and water supply systems, both of which were classified as emergency situations.
The building has also faced persistent pest control challenges, with multiple reports of roach infestation and a documented mouse sighting in late 2023. Health-related concerns included hot water exceeding 130 degrees in Apartment 23, and vermin-related issues that required intervention by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. The property has a history of various maintenance problems requiring HPD intervention, including plumbing issues, mailbox problems, unsanitary conditions, and interior maintenance matters such as paint/plaster concerns in cabinets and ceilings. As of 2024, there are open Building violations related to defective self-closing doors at both roof bulkhead entrances, which suggest potential safety concerns.
The building has undergone multiple rodent inspections, with the most recent inspections in 2025 and 2024 showing compliance, though a rat activity report from October 2023 was recorded. Historical data from 2019 indicates prior concerns regarding illegal hotel room usage and safety systems, though these violations were ultimately resolved. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug-free status in recent filings between 2022 and 2024, and all violations and complaints have been documented as closed through appropriate channels. Recent inspection records from Fall 2024 also indicate resolution of various housing maintenance code violations related to paint conditions, fire retardant materials, and roof leaks.
