1510 Lexington Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10029

1510 Lexington Avenue is an 18-story, 298-unit residential building located in East Harlem, constructed in 2008 and currently owned by Cornelius Sigety. The property has experienced several significant infrastructure issues over the past few years, most notably recurring heat and hot water problems. There were three emergency heat/hot water complaints in 2023 (February), 2022 (February), and 2021 (December), with no violations found in the first two instances, while access was not granted for inspection during the 2021 complaint.

Additionally, in August 2019, the building faced elevator safety concerns with multiple violations related to door zone restrictors, car lights, and valve issues, for which a monetary penalty of $1,250 was sanctioned. The building's maintenance record shows some environmental challenges, though they appear to be under control. A rat sighting was reported in September 2018, and while there was some rat activity noted in February 2024, this was an isolated incident among several passing inspections.

The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations since 2019, with only one documented case in 2019 that was promptly addressed. The most recent incidents include a food establishment complaint investigated by the NYC Health Department in April-June 2025, which was resolved through standard inspection procedures. Regular rodent inspections have consistently passed, with only the one instance of rat activity noted previously. The building's overall maintenance pattern suggests proactive management, though the persistent heat/hot water issues and past elevator safety concerns indicate some areas requiring continued attention.
