1676 1st Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10128
1676 1st Avenue is a 6-unit, 4-story old law tenement building in the Upper East Side, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Joseph Cvek. The building's recent history reveals recurring pest control concerns, with the most recent complaint in May 2023 regarding unsanitary conditions and pests that could not be inspected by HPD.
This complaint follows two previous violations in 2021 and 2022 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these violations were subsequently closed. The building has consistently demonstrated compliance with rodent inspections, passing all recent inspections from 2018 through most recently in October 2024, indicating effective pest management in that regard. Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations in recent years, with official reports from 2019 through 2025 showing zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units.
This suggests effective bedbug management procedures have been implemented since the earlier violations. A single DOHMH complaint regarding pet sales was recorded in August 2019, but no further information was provided about this incident. While the recent pest complaint from 2023 stands out as a significant resident concern, it is important to note that similar reported conditions in the past have led to enforcement actions and inspections, suggesting that the building management is responsive to such issues when they are properly reported and accessible for inspection.
