2060 5th Avenue is a 6-story, 25-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Harlem, built in 1900 and currently owned by Gideon Stryker. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent years, with significant problems related to heating and water systems. Most notably, there was a heat/hot water emergency affecting the entire building in February 2024, and historical records show similar heating problems in late 2022.
The property has also faced water-related challenges, with heavy flow leaks reported in late 2023. Multiple housing maintenance code violations have been documented, including C-class violations issued in February 2024 for inadequate heat supply in apartment 1B and blocked access to the building's heating system. The building has a persistent rodent infestation history, with multiple failed inspections recorded between 2023 and 2025, though recent compliance inspections have shown some improvement. The building's maintenance history reveals recurring issues with windows, walls, and general upkeep, with various complaints filed between September 2023 and November 2023 regarding paint/plaster damage, window frame problems, and flooring concerns.
A pattern of unauthorized modifications and inadequate maintenance has been documented, including a 2021 complaint about work without proper permits and a 2022 investigation into illegal hotel room usage. The property has maintained a bedbug-free status in recent filings from 2018 through 2024, showing no reported infestations. Environmental Control Board violations from 2018 and 2021 indicate past issues with building maintenance and safety features, though these were subsequently resolved. The building's elevator system has been subject to inspection, with no violations found in 2019, and recent inspections suggest improved compliance with housing maintenance codes, particularly regarding pest control.
