1725 2nd Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10128
The 5-story, 18-unit tenement building at 1725 2nd Avenue, owned by Reuben Elnadav, has experienced persistent maintenance issues throughout 2024-2025, most notably involving heat and hot water problems. Recent complaints indicate significant concerns with building-wide heating systems, including emergency complaints in May 2025 and earlier issues in February 2025, March 2025, and multiple incidents in 2024, with several HPD inspections unable to gain apartment access for verification.
Water-related problems are also prominent, with slow leaks reported in May 2025 leading to violations, and ongoing maintenance issues documented in the building's housing maintenance code violations. The property has faced several concerning violations that require attention, particularly in September 2024 when multiple Class B violations were issued for Apartment 2RS regarding water leaks, carbon monoxide detector issues, electrical concerns, and the presence of mice.
The building's history shows recurring problems with unauthorized use and safety violations, including multiple complaints about illegal hotel rooms in 2024 and construction work without permits, though many of these complaints resulted in "No Violation Warranted" upon inspection. Rat activity has been documented on multiple occasions, with the most recent inspection in June 2025 showing continuing rodent issues, despite previous inspections in 2023 having resulted in compliance passes. The building's plumbing systems require particular attention, as evidenced by multiple water-related complaints and violations, impacting both resident comfort and building maintenance compliance.
