1330 1st Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10021

The 20-story, 343-unit residential building at 1330 1st Avenue, owned by John Sutherland, was completed in 2007 and has experienced recurring heating system issues over the past year. In early 2024, four separate heat and hot water complaints were filed, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, with multiple reports indicating difficulty in gaining access for inspection. These complaints, categorized as emergencies, were eventually addressed and closed by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development.

The building's maintenance record shows two instances of bedbug infestation between 2019-2024, though the most recent (2023-2024) reported no active cases, and all previous infestations were reported as eradicated. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections, all passing between 2012 and 2024, indicating effective pest management. Several building-wide violations were recorded in 2023-2024 related to failure to file required external low-pressure inspections, though these were subsequently dismissed.

Historical data shows an elevator-related violation in 2019 and an illegal after-hours work complaint, both of which were resolved. A significant outstanding violation from 2018 regarding a final inspection for completed work remains active, with a penalty of $1,250 imposed. Regular permits for various maintenance work have been issued consistently since 2019, with the most recent in 2021, suggesting ongoing efforts to maintain building systems and infrastructure.
