25 St Nicholas Terrace, Manhattan, NY 10027
25 St. Nicholas Terrace is a 55-unit, 6-story residential building located in Harlem, owned by Michael Aryeh and constructed in 1920 as a New Law tenement. The property has experienced numerous maintenance issues and compliance challenges in recent years.
As of mid-2025, there are active violations related to failure to submit an Energy Efficiency Report for multiple years (2019-2023) and a concerning unresolved issue regarding elevator safety with a penalty of $6,250 for non-compliance. Between 2024 and 2025, the building faced multiple housing maintenance code complaints and violations, particularly affecting apartment 55 on the fifth floor, which has open violations related to bathroom fixtures, water leaks, and tile damage as of November 2024. Other recent issues include problems with paint/plaster surfaces, plumbing, electrical systems, and heating/hot water maintenance.
The building has been subject to ongoing scrutiny for potential unauthorized modifications and illegal transient use, with multiple complaints and violations regarding apartments 28 and 29 in 2022, though some were ultimately resolved or dismissed. There are also recent concerns about food safety (a pending DOHMH complaint from 2025) and rodent control, with inspections showing rat activity in 2024 and 2023, though some inspections passed. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with no reported infestations in recent years. The building's management has received multiple violation notices and needs to address the recurring issue of not submitting required energy reports and addressing the elevator safety concerns for full compliance with city regulations.
