1588 3rd Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10128

The 15-story, 96-unit residential building at 1588 3rd Avenue, owned by Rose Caiola and constructed in 1980, has experienced recurring heating system issues over the past several years, with emergency heat/hot water complaints recorded in January 2024, December 2022, March 2021, and December 2020, though in each case, inspections indicated the problem was resolved at the time of reporting. The building has maintained a relatively good record regarding pest control, with rodent inspections showing consistent passing results from 2018 through 2025, and only one recorded rodent-related complaint with no violations found in April 2023.

While there was a documented instance of mold in 2020 (specifically in Apartment 4D), this violation was corrected as evidenced by the issuance of a Notice of Violation for mold removal in July 2020, which was certified as completed in August 2020. The building currently faces several active violations related to the failure to file 2023 and 2022 external low-pressure inspections, issued in September 2024 and April 2023 respectively. These violations remain open as of the current date.

The property has maintained an active bedbug monitoring program, reporting zero infestations in the last three annual filings (2024, 2023, and 2022), with only one reported case in 2022 that was promptly eradicated. Compliance inspections for various services, including plumbing and sanitation checks, have generally resulted in passing scores, though temporary issues with heat systems and comfort amenities remain a recurring concern. The building's management has consistently obtained necessary permits for work conducted between 2018 and 2022, suggesting regular maintenance and compliance with building codes for major systems.
