454 St Nicholas Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10027

454 St Nicholas Avenue is a 5-story, 10-unit old law tenement building located in Harlem, owned by Renee Tirado and constructed in 1950. The building has experienced two significant resident service complaints in recent years: a plumbing issue with the water supply in late 2022 (resolved June 2023) and a heat/hot water problem in a single apartment in late 2021 (resolved within a week).

The Department of Buildings issued violations in June 2023 for failure to file external low-pressure inspections for both 2020 and 2021, though these violations were subsequently dismissed in January 2024. The building has maintained a good record regarding pest management, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past five years, as evidenced by consistent zero counts in annual bedbug reports filed between 2019 and 2025. Regular maintenance inspections appear to be conducted appropriately, as demonstrated by passing rodent inspections from 2018 through May 2025.

Previous violations included a bedbug reporting violation in February 2022, though this appears to have been resolved given the absence of subsequent bedbug reports. Multiple plumbing and electrical permits were issued between 2019 and 2020, indicating ongoing investment in building infrastructure. The property has maintained an overall positive track record in terms of pest management and regular inspections, though attention to timely filing of required inspections should be noted.
