2125 1st Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10029

2125 1st Avenue is a 4-story, 6-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1900, currently owned by John Giouroukakis. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues, with significant documented problems between July and August 2023, particularly in apartment 3S, including unsanitary conditions related to mold and pests, plumbing issues (sink and basin problems), and various paint/plaster concerns affecting walls and ceilings.

These violations were primarily classified as Class A and B under the Housing Maintenance Code. More recently, the building has accumulated multiple open violations related to failure to file annual external low-pressure inspections for 2022-2023, and a July 2023 Environmental Control Board violation noted deteriorating conditions on the front facade, including vertical cracks in the masonry wall and issues with the roof-level cornice, resulting in a $2,500 penalty. The property has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections between 2017 and 2025, which suggests effective pest management in this area.

Bedbug reports between 2020-2025 show no infestations or eradications, indicating successful prevention measures against this specific pest. While recent housing maintenance violations have been addressed through various closure dates, notably in September 2023, some open violations persist as of the current date, including mold and plumbing issues in apartment 3S. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of recurring issues requiring ongoing attention, particularly regarding water-related problems and interior conditions.
