2263 Adam C Powell Blvd, Manhattan, NY 10030
The five-story, 16-unit building at 2263 Adam C. Powell Blvd in Harlem, owned by Elchanan Mordechai, has a substantial history of maintenance issues dating back several years. Most notably, there have been recurring heating and hot water problems, with the most recent complaint in November 2023 affecting the entire building.
The building's infrastructure has shown persistent challenges, including multiple water leak incidents, interior maintenance issues (such as paint and plaster problems), and various building system deficiencies. In 2022-2023, apartment 7B was found with several violations including non-functioning smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, hot water supply issues, and various interior surface problems, though these were certified as corrected by March 2023. The building has experienced multiple Department of Buildings complaints related to egress concerns and unauthorized work, with some inspections showing inspectors were unable to gain access. There have also been several Environmental Control Board violations between 2018-2022, primarily related to maintenance of boiler systems and building safety requirements, though these were generally resolved with fines.
Recent inspections have shown mixed results regarding pest control, with rat activity noted in several 2023-2024 inspections, though the most recent inspection in June 2025 passed. The building has maintained a consistent record of filing bedbug reports showing zero infestation cases between 2020 and the present. Currently, there are active violations regarding the failure to file 2018 and 2019 external low-pressure inspections as of June 2023. While many past violations have been resolved, the building's history demonstrates ongoing challenges with building systems maintenance, particularly regarding heating infrastructure and water supply systems.
