2190 Fredrick Douglass Bl, Manhattan, NY 10026
The 8-unit, 5-story building at 2190 Frederick Douglass Boulevard in Harlem, owned by Kiumarz Geula, has faced significant maintenance challenges in recent years. A notable concern throughout 2024 and into 2025 has been a persistent rodent problem, with multiple complaints and inspections showing regular rat activity requiring bait application between September 2024 and July 2025.
The building has also experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water, particularly notable in late 2023 and early 2024, with multiple tenant complaints and violations documented by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), including specific violations related to inadequate heating in apartment 4B and maintenance issues with the heating system access. Recent health and safety concerns include several Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) complaints about food establishment conditions in 2025, specifically relating to spoiled food and rodent/insect issues, though these were technically connected to a commercial space rather than residential concerns.
The building currently has active housing maintenance code violations from 2023-2024, including issues related to heating system access, garbage disposal, and the need for updated safety equipment in apartment 2B. Additional concerns have been documented regarding interior maintenance, with multiple non-emergency complaints in 2025 relating to paint/plaster conditions and general upkeep. While the building has maintained a record of zero bedbug infestations reported in official filings between 2019 and 2023, the persistent rodent issues and heating system problems suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance and resident comfort.
