1367 1st Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10021

The four-story, 12-unit Old Law Tenement at 1367 First Avenue, built in 1930 and currently owned by Pui Fong Kam, has experienced several notable incidents and required inspections over the past few years. Most recently, in March 2025, there was an inspection related to an illegal/improper vent/exhaust complaint filed in December 2024, which resulted in no violations being found.

An earlier vent/exhaust issue from March 2021 did lead to an Oath violation. The building has maintained an exemplary bedbug record for the past three years, with no reported infestations or eradications between 2021 and 2024, and all required bedbug reports have been filed as of December 2024. The property has faced some health and safety challenges, including a public health complaint in October 2021 regarding vaccine mandate non-compliance, and several food establishment-related complaints between 2019 and 2020.

The most recent rodent inspection in August 2022 resulted in a "Failed for Other Reasons" designation, though earlier inspections between 2011 and 2019 had consistently passed. The Department of Buildings has recorded multiple vent/exhaust related complaints between 2020 and 2024, with varying outcomes, and there was one instance in 2020 where an inspector was unable to gain access during a drainage complaint inspection. While the building has had its share of complaints and violations, many have been resolved or closed without findings, and the property has shown notable improvement in bedbug management and food safety compliance over recent years.
