1558 2nd Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10028

The 6-unit, 4-story tenement building at 1558 2nd Avenue in Manhattan's Upper East Side, owned by Neal Geffner and constructed in 1910, has experienced recurring plumbing and sanitation issues in recent years. Most notably, there have been three documented water supply-related plumbing complaints between 2023 and 2024, with the most recent occurring in July 2024, though inspections did not result in any violations.

A recent mold complaint was filed in June 2025, which was investigated but did not violate HPD housing laws. The building has maintained an impeccable record regarding bedbug infestations since 2019, with all annual reports showing zero affected units, and regular rodent inspections (ongoing since 2010) have consistently passed, indicating generally good pest management practices.

The property had one Housing Maintenance Code violation in February 2022 regarding their annual bedbug reporting compliance, though this appears to have been promptly addressed as subsequent filings show no infestations. While the building has experienced some water-related issues and one instance of mold, these conditions have typically been addressed quickly, with most complaints being resolved within days of reporting. The absence of serious violations or repeated complaints suggests that while maintenance issues have occurred, they have generally been promptly addressed through proper channels.
