1326 2nd Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10021
1326 2nd Avenue is a 5-story, 16-unit old law tenement building located in Manhattan's Upper East Side, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Bktk Realty LLC. The building has experienced recurring issues with pest control, particularly rodents, as evidenced by multiple Department of Health and Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) complaints between 2020 and 2024. Most recently, in 2024, there was a complaint regarding unsanitary conditions and pests that took nearly four months to resolve.
The building has also faced significant challenges with heating and hot water systems, with multiple emergency complaints filed in 2021 and 2022, including violations for inadequate hot water supply to Apartment 2C. Additional maintenance issues were identified in 2021, including missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 2C, and problems with the building's heating system access and fire retardant materials in public areas. The property has a documented history of water-related issues, with several complaints regarding leaks in the vestibule and 2nd story public hall being addressed in 2020 and 2021. Inspection records show some progress, with rodent inspections in 2023 passing, though there were multiple instances of rat activity recorded between 2016 and 2019.
The building's management has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2019, with no documented infestations. However, there is an active Department of Buildings violation from June 2023 regarding an unfiled external low-pressure inspection from 2019. Previous concerns about unauthorized conversions and illegal commercial use were investigated in 2020, with violation notices served. Inspection records show both improvement and ongoing challenges in building maintenance, with multiple issues reaching resolution while new concerns periodically arise.
