2 St Nicholas Terrace, Manhattan, NY 10027

2 St Nicholas Terrace is a 5-story, 16-unit residential building in Harlem owned by Nicolas Loizou and constructed in 1901 as a New Law Tenement. The building has experienced recurring pest issues, particularly evident through multiple complaints and violations in Apartment 8 regarding both mice and roach infestations between 2023 and 2024. As of March 2025, there are open complaints related to water leaks (heavy flow) and pests recorded in March 2025, though recent rodent inspections in June 2025 showed compliance, following previous "Rat Activity" findings in May 2025.

The property has faced several heating and hot water system challenges, with building-wide complaints reported in December 2024. The building's maintenance history shows various safety concerns, including multiple violations for the failure to file annual boiler and low-pressure inspection reports between 2018-2023, active as of September 2024. Apartment 8 has been the focus of multiple inspections and violations regarding its condition, particularly in 2023-2024, when issues with smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detection devices were also documented.

The building underwent construction enforcement scrutiny in late 2021, leading to a temporary Stop Work Order for Apartment 8, which was later rescinded. Recent health and safety inspections have shown some urgency in response to complaints, as evidenced by multiple agency involvement and the recording of recent complaints through both HPD and DOHMH regarding unsanitary conditions and smoking violations. The property has maintained a consistent record of bedbug-free status since 2020, with zero reported infestations during the annual reporting periods.
