1428 York Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10021

1428 York Avenue is a 5-story, 17-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Jason Glick. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past two years, with multiple water-related problems being particularly notable. The most recent incident occurred in June 2025 involving heavy water flow, while throughout late 2023, there were several water leak complaints (both heavy flow and damp spots), heating issues affecting the entire building, and unsanitary conditions related to mold.

Although inspections were conducted for most of these complaints, no violations were found in cases involving the electric/gas range, bathtub/shower, water leaks, or mold during October 2023. The building's heating system has shown persistent issues, with a heat/hot water emergency complaint recorded in April 2019 and another in November 2023. Rodent activity has been a significant concern historically, particularly between 2019-2022, with multiple inspections showing rat activity, though a compliance inspection in December 2022 showed improvement.

The building's management has successfully maintained a bedbug-free record for the past several years, with all annual reports from 2019-2025 indicating zero infested or re-infested units. A 2021 violation related to the failure to file the annual bedbug report was promptly certified as corrected. The property had one exterior issue in 2021 regarding an illegal storefront sign, though this was dismissed upon inspection. While the building has had various maintenance complaints over the years, the frequency and nature of recent water-related issues suggest ongoing plumbing challenges, despite many of these complaints being resolved without formal violations.
