1635 Lexington Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10029
1635 Lexington Avenue is an 8-story, 42-unit Class A building in East Harlem, constructed in 2013 and currently owned by Michael Padernacht. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2024 and into 2025, with multiple complaints filed through 311 and HPD, including 8 emergency complaints between December 2024 and February 2025 affecting either the entire building or individual apartments. In January 2024, several significant violations were issued relating to building safety and maintenance, including the need for proper signs indicating building registration number, security measures, and emergency equipment requirements.
The building's FISP Cycle 9C Technical Report was not filed by the February 2024 deadline, though a previous unsafe report from August 2024 was subsequently deleted due to being issued in error. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections, consistently passing all evaluations from 2012 through 2025, indicating good pest management practices. A bedbug infestation was reported in one unit in 2020-2021, but subsequent annual filings from 2021 to 2024 show no further infestations.
The building has faced some regulatory scrutiny regarding potential illegal hotel operations, with complaints investigated in 2018, 2019, and most recently in late 2023, though inspectors were unable to gain access during their final attempts in 2024. Additionally, there was an elevator-related violation in May 2021 that resulted in an OATH violation being served. While the recent heat and hot water issues are of particular concern, the building has maintained compliance with rodent control requirements and has shown some improvement in addressing other maintenance matters over time.
