1386 2nd Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10021
The 6-unit, 4-story old law tenement building at 1386 2nd Avenue, owned by Hersel Torkian and dating back to 1915, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there was an inadequate heating situation reported in late 2024 that required Department of Health intervention.
The building faced multiple maintenance challenges in July 2020, including violations related to mold and pest infestations, particularly affecting the 5th floor apartment, along with issues concerning paint/plaster conditions in ceilings. These led to emergency Housing Maintenance Code complaints and subsequent violations. While the property has maintained an active bedbug reporting history from 2019 to 2023, recent reports (2022-2023) show no infested units, with all previously infested units reported as eradicated.
The building has consistently passed rodent inspections between 2010-2019, indicating good pest control management. Most recently, in early 2025, there was a construction-related complaint that resulted in no violations being found upon inspection. The property has shown improvement in some areas, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past two years and the resolution of various maintenance issues, though the heating problem from 2024 indicates ongoing infrastructure challenges.
