10 Lenox Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10026

The 8-story, 29-unit residential building at 10 Lenox Avenue in Harlem, owned by Zachary Broder and completed in 2018, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues over its operation. Most recently, there was a closed complaint regarding unsanitary garbage/recycling storage reported in December 2022 and resolved in June 2023, following an HPD inspection that found no violations. The building has shown consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2022 through 2024, with no reported infestations during these periods.

Between 2019 and 2024, the property passed multiple rodent inspections, though there were two periods of rat activity noted in 2019 and 2022. Between 2018 and 2019, the building faced several safety and compliance challenges during its construction phase, including three Environmental Control Board violations in January 2019 related to standpipe readiness, scaffolding safety, and worker qualifications, resulting in penalties totaling $12,500. There were also multiple Department of Buildings complaints regarding plumbing issues and various work-related matters, all of which were ultimately closed with no violations found.

The building's management has maintained documentation of permit issuances throughout its operation, with multiple permits granted for various types of work between 2018 and 2020. Recent inspections in 2023 through 2025 have generally shown compliance with housing maintenance standards, including the most recent rodent inspections which passed. The property was noted to have failed to file an FISP Cycle 9A technical report in 2022, though this violation was dismissed.
