432 St Nicholas Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10027

The 5-story, 10-unit building at 432 St Nicholas Avenue in Harlem, owned by 360 Preservation LLC and built in 1963, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues over the past several years, with four emergency heat/hot water complaints in 2025 alone, one of which affected the entire building. Similar complaints were filed in 2022 and 2020, indicating an ongoing maintenance challenge.

The building has also faced several safety and building code issues, including three violations identified in April 2023, primarily related to self-closing doors at the vestibule and one specific to apartment 3B. A concerning pattern of rodent activity is evidenced by multiple inspections throughout 2024 and 2025, though the most recent inspection in May 2025 passed.

Between 2020-2022, the building had documented issues with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, particularly in apartment 3B, though these were subsequently addressed. The property has maintained an active bedbug report record since 2020, with no infestations recorded in the past five reporting periods, suggesting effective management of this issue. Recent inspections have also confirmed compliance with appliance safety and general maintenance requirements, though the recurring nature of heat and hot water complaints suggests ongoing infrastructure challenges.
