2156 3rd Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10035
The 5-story, 16-unit residential building at 2156 3rd Avenue in East Harlem, currently owned by Geraldo Rivera, has exhibited a mixed record of maintenance and compliance since 2018. Most notably, there was a serious boiler-related issue in 2020 that resulted in an Environmental Control Board violation, documenting multiple equipment deficiencies including missing hot water temperature gauge, missing sail switch for the combustion fan, unsafe chimney conditions, and improper plumbing connections - though this violation was resolved with no penalties owed.
A more recent complaint in December 2023 regarding unauthorized work in the occupied building was inspected the same day and found to have no validated violations. The building has maintained a relatively good record regarding pest control and safety inspections.
Bedbug reports from 2020 through 2024 consistently showed zero infested or re-infested units. While the building passed all rodent inspections between 2018 and 2024, there was one failed compliance inspection in June 2024, though the specific reasons for this failure are not detailed in the records. The most recent rodent inspection from June 2025 passed without incident, suggesting ongoing efforts to maintain building hygiene and safety.
