2338 2nd Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10035
The 9-story, 30-unit building at 2338 2nd Avenue in East Harlem, constructed in 2015 and currently owned by Tara Dexter, has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly in recent years. Between December 2024 and May 2025, there were multiple HPD complaints regarding various safety and maintenance concerns, including problems with carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, doors, appliances, and flooring, though most of these complaints were closed without confirmed violations.
Two recent safety-related complaints in April 2025 regarding the fire escape and garbage storage were also closed without violations. The building has ongoing housing maintenance code issues as of June 2025, including open complaints about ceiling paint/plaster and water leaks. The property has a documented history of various maintenance challenges, particularly in apartment 7C, including water leaks, mold, and mechanical issues with ventilation and electrical systems, with violations recorded in both 2023 and 2024.
During construction in late 2019, there were multiple Environmental Control Board violations regarding construction safety and compliance, which were subsequently resolved with fines. While the building has maintained a rodent-free status with regular inspections passing between 2018 and 2025, and shows no recent bedbug infestations according to the last four annual reports, the persistence of various maintenance issues suggests ongoing challenges with property upkeep. It's worth noting that four separate inspection attempts in December 2024 regarding safety features (smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors) and building systems (doors, appliances, flooring) were not completed due to access issues, though these complaints were eventually closed in May 2025.
