1566 2nd Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10028

1566 2nd Avenue is a 7-story, 8-unit residential building located in New York City's Upper East Side, built in 1915 and currently owned by Jonathan Mena. The property has experienced several notable maintenance and compliance events over recent years.

In late 2020, there were two similar complaints regarding unsanitary conditions related to garbage and recycling storage, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) found no violations. The building received a violation in February 2022 for failing to file an annual bedbug report, though subsequent filings between 2022 and 2025 (the most recent in March 2025) indicate zero infested units during the reporting periods, suggesting the issue was resolved. Rodent inspections between 2014 and 2020 showed a pattern of monitoring, with rat activity noted in December 2019 and July 2020 inspections, though earlier inspections in 2019, 2018, and most of 2017 passed without issues.

The property shows regular compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since the 2022 violation, with all subsequent filings indicating no infestations. A departmental permit was issued in December 2019 for exterior work, though specific details of the work completed are not documented in the available data. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues over the years, recent data shows improved compliance with health and safety requirements, particularly regarding pest control and reporting obligations.
