1433 3rd Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10028

1433 3rd Avenue is a 7-story, 18-unit building located on the Upper East Side, built in 1975 and currently owned by Carlos Galvis. The building has experienced several significant issues in recent years, with the most pressing being a major heat and hot water outage in December 2022 that affected the entire building, prompting multiple emergency complaints to the Housing Preservation Department (HPD).

While heat and hot water were reportedly restored, these incidents highlight potential maintenance concerns. The building's boiler system has also been a recurring issue, with a July 2022 violation noting defects including an improperly functioning combustion air fan and an undersized pressuretrol manifold, though this violation was subsequently resolved with a $312 penalty. Food establishment inspections have been conducted regularly, with recent activity including a May 2023 temperature complaint and various inspections related to food safety and rodent management.

The building has experienced ongoing rodent activity, as evidenced by multiple inspections and baiting activities between 2022 and 2025, though it passed its most recent inspection in September 2024. Of note, the building's bedbug reports from 2019 through 2024 show no infestations or eradication efforts required in any of the units, suggesting this is not currently an issue. The property has also undergone several permitted work activities, with permits issued in 2020 and 2021 for unspecified work, and a Local Law 188 compliance inspection conducted in December 2022, though the inspector was unable to gain access.
