2290 2nd Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10035
2290 2nd Avenue, an OLD LAW TENEMENT built in 1920 in East Harlem, is a 5-story, 10-unit building currently owned by Anna Cicalo. The building has experienced consistent heat and hot water issues over the past few years, with multiple emergency complaints recorded between November 2022 and April 2023, all involving the entire building. While most of these complaints were marked as resolved, the frequency and pattern of these heating system failures are notable. The building also faced plumbing issues in February 2023, which were investigated but resulted in no violations.
The property has an active violation as of September 2024 regarding the failure to file the 2023 external low pressure inspection, and a historical pattern of administrative violations includes multiple failures to file required inspections between 2018-2024. In 2020, there were significant issues in apartment 2A including a pest infestation (both roaches and mice), defective wood floor repairs, and issues with plastered surfaces, though these were subsequently addressed. The building previously experienced security concerns in 2018 when LED lights were installed improperly on the building's front awning. Notably, 2290 2nd Avenue has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs in recent years, with no reported infestations across all annual filings from 2019 to present.
The property has consistently passed all rodent inspections from 2018 through 2025, indicating effective pest management since 2020. The building's management has shown some responsiveness to heating system issues, with HPD inspections generally confirming restoration of services, though not all problems appear to have been resolved permanently. Multiple violations related to building codes and maintenance requirements have been documented, though many have been resolved through proper certification. The property has also experienced periods with multiple overlapping complaints being filed by different tenants, suggesting communication challenges regarding maintenance issues.
