465 Lenox Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10037
The 22-unit building at 465 Lenox Avenue in Harlem, owned by Abdul Ahmed, has experienced significant heating system challenges throughout early 2025, with multiple emergency complaints documented between January and April 2025 regarding heat and hot water issues affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. Of particular note, multiple inspections in February 2025 were unable to gain access to units for verification of these complaints, though some conditions were later confirmed as corrected.
The building has also been the subject of several illegal conversion complaints, with four separate complaints filed between 2019 and 2025. While most of these investigations resulted in either "No Violation" findings or inability to gain access, an active ECB violation from 2023 remains regarding work allegedly performed in Apartment 4B without proper permits, with a penalty of $1,250 imposed.
The property has undergone various maintenance inspections and repairs, with multiple violations noted in the 2024 inspection of Apartment 3A, including issues with smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector compliance, as well as problems with plaster surfaces, paint uniformity, and window casing repairs. The building's rodent control history shows a mix of passed and failed inspections, with some evidence of rat activity recorded in 2023-2024, though a June 2025 inspection passed. Bedbug reports for the building spanning 2020-2025 show no documented infestations or eradication efforts.
