1984 2nd Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10029
The 12-unit, 5-story building at 1984 2nd Avenue in East Harlem, owned by William Guerrero, has experienced recurring infrastructure issues since 2022, with the most pressing concerns being heat/hot water outages and plumbing problems. Most recently, in October 2024, there was a heat/hot water complaint affecting the entire building, though inspectors were unable to access units for verification. The building has documented three heat/hot water complaints in 2022-2024, with temporary restorations reported, and four plumbing issues including sewer problems and a bathtub shower violation in 2024 that resulted in violations being issued.
Additional concerns include rodent activity, with multiple bait applications and rat activity inspections in 2024-2025, and various sanitary issues such as mold and sewage problems in 2023-2024, though many of these complaints were resolved. The building's maintenance history shows a persistent pattern of emergency complaints, including a water leak with heavy flow in 2023, and issues with building systems such as a defective/inoperative boiler in 2023 that resulted in a violation. More recent investigations revealed structural concerns, with a 2021 violation relating to step cracks in exterior walls, and safety issues including an illegally fastened fire escape ladder in late 2023.
The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases from 2020-2024, though there was a minor bedbug reporting violation noted in 2021. The property has undergone regular inspections by various city agencies, with varying results, including one Compliance inspection noting rat activity in 2025, and several instances of bait application for rodent control between 2024 and 2025. While some violations have been addressed promptly, others remain open or were only temporarily resolved, indicating ongoing maintenance challenges for the 110-year-old structure.
