324 Pleasant Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10035

324 Pleasant Avenue is a 7-story, 39-unit residential building constructed in 2010 and currently owned by Steve Zervoudis. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water system issues, with multiple emergency complaints filed in 2024-2025 indicating building-wide and apartment-specific heating problems.

These heating system failures are significant, though inspections often found the systems had been restored by the time of response. The building underwent several HPD inspections in 2022 where access was not granted to inspect concerning issues including mold, ventilation systems, door frames, and ceiling conditions, and there were multiple violations in 2019 related to hot water and gas supply issues in apartments 2D, 2A, and 7E, all of which were subsequently closed. Recent records show active violations regarding the building's exterior wall examination reports and energy efficiency display requirements as of 2022-2023, though these are not directly related to resident living conditions.

The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with no reported infestations in the last six years. Rodent inspections have shown mixed results, with some "Rat Activity" findings in late 2023 and early 2024, though subsequent inspections in 2024-2025 passed without issues. While the building's recent health inspections for pests have been clean, the recurring heating system problems and accessibility issues during inspections suggest ongoing maintenance access challenges.
