1748 2nd Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10128
This 12-unit, 5-story Old Law Tenement building on the Upper East Side, constructed in 1920, has experienced persistent issues with heating and hot water systems, as evidenced by multiple emergency complaints throughout 2024-2025. The building has an active Department of Buildings (DOB) violation from October 2024 regarding required paint conditions in the bulkhead roof area, and several open Housing Maintenance Code violations from January 2024 concerning issues in apartment 4N, including mold, defective plaster surfaces, and other maintenance concerns.
Recent emergency maintenance issues documented in June 2025 included problems with doors, stairs, and a sprinkler system. The property has undergone several inspections for pest control, with the most recent rodent inspection in July 2025 resulting in a failure, though previous inspections generally indicated compliance. The building's exterior maintenance has been scrutinized, with violations noted in 2023 regarding window A/C unit support brackets.
While there have been complaints about building conditions, many were closed due to lack of access during inspections, including several heat/hot water complaints in March and November 2024, and more recent issues in June 2025. The DOB previously dismissed a violation from June 2023 regarding low-pressure inspection filing, and there have been multiple rodent bait applications documented between October 2020 and February 2022, suggesting ongoing pest management efforts. The building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations reported during the current inspection periods.
