1590 2nd Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10028
The six-story, 16-unit Old Law Tenement at 1590 2nd Avenue, built in 1910 and currently owned by Jonathan Cruz, has experienced several notable incidents in recent years. Most concerning are multiple food safety-related complaints, with three documented cases of food poisoning between 2024 and 2020, including one instance involving three or more cases in January 2024 and another in March 2024, though health authorities deemed these as isolated incidents.
The building has faced regulatory compliance issues, particularly regarding boiler inspections, with active violations noted in both 2024 for failure to file required annual low-pressure boiler inspection reports, dating back to 2020-2023, with associated penalties totaling $625. The property has undergone several Department of Buildings inspections between 2021-2024, including complaints about work without permits, illegal conversions, and vent/exhaust issues, though no violations were found during inspections in 2024, 2023, and 2022.
While the building has maintained an active bedbug reporting history showing zero infestations through 2025, and recent rodent inspections have consistently passed (most recently in September 2024), the property has significant gaps in its regulatory compliance history, particularly regarding timely boiler inspection filings. The building's food establishment and general safety record shows periodic issues with various food safety complaints, though many have been addressed or closed without finding significant violations. The most recent documented bedbug reports cover the 2023-2024 period with no infestations reported, and the property has successfully passed multiple rodent inspections since 2019, suggesting reasonable maintenance of basic pest control standards.
