2268 1st Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10035
2268 1st Avenue is a 4-story, 3-unit Old Law Tenement building located in East Harlem, owned by James Pisacano and constructed in 1900. The building's maintenance history reveals several significant concerns over the past few years, with the most pressing issues occurring between 2022-2023. In March 2022, multiple violations were documented in Apartment 3, including problems with lead-based paint hazards, water leaks affecting ceilings, and various maintenance issues including broken plaster and peeling paint, all of which were subsequently certified as corrected between March and May 2022.
A concerning pattern of maintenance issues emerged in 2022-2023, including a heat/hot water complaint in March 2022 where HPD could not gain access to inspect the problem, and a rodent sighting in January 2023 that resulted in violations requiring follow-up inspections. The building also had an active violation as of late 2019 for failing to file the annual boiler inspection report for 2017. However, more recent records indicate improved maintenance, with the building passing multiple rodent inspections throughout 2023-2025, including three successive passes in 2024 (March, September, and December) and one in 2025 (March).
The bedbug reporting history shows consistent compliance, with zero reported infestations in the past five filing periods from 2019 through 2024. The most recent rodent inspections have shown consistent compliance, and as of 2025, there are no open bedbug violations or infestations. While the building experienced significant maintenance issues in 2022-2023, particularly regarding water damage and lead paint concerns, the situation appears to have stabilized in recent years, with no new violations reported in 2024-2025 and successful completion of required rodent inspections. The property has maintained regular bedbug reporting compliance, consistently showing zero affected units, with the most recent filing from December 2024 covering the period from November 2023 to October 2024.
