372 Manhattan Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10026

372 Manhattan Avenue is a 5-story, 10-unit old law tenement building built in 1900, currently owned by Catherine Yu. The building has experienced persistent heat and hot water issues throughout 2024-2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed through HPD, including both entire-building and apartment-specific problems. Notably, there was a significant cluster of heat-related complaints between October 2024 and December 2024.

In 2022, several violations were documented in apartment 3B, including water leaks, mold, and various interior maintenance issues, though many of these were subsequently closed following correction efforts. The building currently has two open violations from 2023: one related to a missing proper registration sign near the entrance, and another concerning mold in apartment 3B's kitchen. Recent inspections show an ongoing rodent control challenge, particularly with multiple instances of rat activity noted between 2022 and 2023, though the most recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 reported "Passed" results for rodent inspections.

The building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations reported from 2018 through 2025. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections, with the last three (2023-2025) passing successfully. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues over the years, including window guard violations, flooring problems, and plumbing concerns, many of these have been addressed through HPD interventions, though some violations remain open as of the latest records. The building's heat and hot water system appears to be the most pressing ongoing concern, with multiple recent complaints indicating this remains an unresolved issue affecting resident comfort.
