134 Edgecombe Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10030

134 Edgecombe Avenue is a 5-story, 9-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1920 and currently managed by Haf Edgecombe Associates Lp. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water service throughout 2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed between February and April 2025, including at least one building-wide outage in April.

Prior to these complaints, the building had documented violations related to heating and hot water systems in 2024, including a locked boiler room access issue and inadequate heating supply to apartment 2L, which were certified as corrected in January 2024. The building has maintained generally good rodent inspection results, passing all inspections between 2018 and 2025. The property has recorded three instances of bedbug infestations between 2020 and 2024, with the most recent cases in December 2023 and December 2024, though in each case the infestations were reported as successfully eradicated.

Additional violations were documented in 2024 related to safety equipment in apartment 2L, including defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, though these were also certified as corrected in January 2024. An illegal hotel room complaint was filed in February 2020 but resulted in no violations being found at the time of inspection. The building's history shows consistent attempts at maintaining compliance with housing codes, though the recent heat and hot water issues in 2025 suggest ongoing challenges with building systems.
