1473 2nd Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10075

At 1473 2nd Avenue, an Upper East Side residential building constructed in 1910 and owned by Anthony Navarette, there have been several notable maintenance issues in recent years that may affect resident comfort and safety. Most concerning are two recent heat and hot water incidents in 2024, including an October emergency complaint that resulted in HPD's inability to gain access to inspect the system, and a similar complaint in February 2021 that was resolved after heat and water were reportedly restored. The building has also experienced recurring issues with garbage/recycling storage, evidenced by two identical complaints in June 2024, though no violations were issued after inspection.

A power outage incident was reported and investigated in February 2021, also without violations being found. The building's maintenance history shows both improvements and ongoing concerns. A bedbug report filed in 2024 indicated 1 infested unit that was treated, while earlier reports from 2020-2023 showed no infestations.

The building has consistently passed rodent inspections conducted between 2010 and 2019, suggesting effective pest management. Notably, a 2018 violation regarding inadequate front entrance lighting was resolved, and a 2018 ECB citation for unpermitted gas pipe work in apartments #13, #15, and the hallway was marked as resolved with no penalties. Between 2021 and 2024, multiple food establishment complaints were filed and closed, including issues related to bare hands in food contact. The building has maintained regular filing compliance for bedbug reporting from 2018 through 2024, with most recent reports showing no active infestations, though one unit was treated in the latest reporting period.
