1524 Amsterdam Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10031

1524 Amsterdam Avenue is a 6-story, 16-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1905, currently owned by Genevieve Outlaw. The building has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues, with three separate complaints filed in 2024-2025, including an open violation from October 2024 regarding water temperature exceeding the maximum allowable 130°F in Apartment 5A.

Other maintenance concerns include multiple instances of door and window problems, particularly with self-closing doors (notably in Apartments 3B and 4C), and general issues such as pest control, mold, and unsanitary conditions. Notable violations include a March 2024 notice regarding fire retardant material at the roof bulkhead requiring repair and painting, though this was later closed. The building has maintained a consistent record of pest management, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past three years and regular rodent inspections showing passing results, though bait was applied in 2022 and 2023.

The building's systems have undergone multiple emergency inspections, particularly for heating and water issues, and while many complaints have been resolved, there remain some open violations requiring attention. Historical data shows the building has generally complied with bedbug reporting requirements, consistently showing zero infested units over multiple reporting periods. While various maintenance issues have been documented, many complaints have been addressed through inspections, though access issues have sometimes limited resolution efforts.
