1483 1st Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10075

This 5-story, 32-unit tenement building located at 1483 1st Avenue in the Upper East Side, owned by Jason Glick, was built in 1910 and has experienced persistent maintenance challenges, particularly in recent months. Most notably, there are currently open complaints regarding pest infestations (as of June 2025), following a pattern of similar issues documented throughout 2024-2025.

The building has also faced multiple elevator service interruptions, with six complaints filed between November 2023 and December 2023, and active ECB violations as of October 2022 related to elevator emergency systems, though several recent elevator complaints were ultimately found to not warrant violations upon inspection. The property has documented heating and sanitation issues, including a building-wide heat/hot water complaint in January 2025, and various unsanitary conditions involving sewage and pests in 2024. In October 2023, significant violations were identified in Apartment 1A, including defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, door issues, and an infestation of roaches, though these were reportedly addressed by November 2023.

Historical records show the building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2019 to 2025, consistently reporting zero infested units. While rat activity was noted in early 2023, this was preceded by multiple consecutive years of passing inspections starting from 2016. The building has also had some infrastructure maintenance issues, including fire escape problems and ventilation system concerns, though many complaints were closed without violations being issued.
