The 39-unit, 4-story residential building at 2071 Madison Avenue in East Harlem, owned by Rick Gropper, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there are currently open violations from December 2024 in apartments 1D and 3C related to pest infestations (mice and roaches), with 3C also showing multiple other issues including water leak problems, heat supply concerns, and ventilation system deficiencies. The property has demonstrated ongoing heating system problems, with multiple complaints in early 2025 about lack of heat/hot water affecting the entire building.
Additionally, there are unaddressed plumbing issues from January 2025 involving multiple fixtures including bathtubs/showers and sinks, as well as an active water leak complaint. The building has a documented history of pest control challenges, with recent bedbug reports showing one infested unit in 2025 and previous incidents in 2020-2021, though some affected units were reported as eradicated. While the building has passed several rodent inspections in 2023-2025, it experienced failed inspections in mid-2023 and 2022.
There are also several open violations as of June 2025 related to general maintenance issues including problems with doors, electrical outlets, and ventilation systems. Regarding historical context, the building has faced various administrative matters including regulatory violations related to energy reporting in 2021-2023, and earlier complaints about illegal parking or curb cut issues in 2020-2022. The property's age (built in 1926) and continuing pattern of maintenance issues suggest persistent challenges in upkeep and repair response.
