220 Edgecombe Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10030
220 Edgecombe Avenue is a 3-story, 8-unit residential building in Harlem built in 1901 and currently owned by William Sharp. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly in 2023-2025, with multiple complaints and violations related to paint/plaster conditions affecting both ceilings and walls.
Notable recent issues include two simultaneous paint/plaster complaints from January 2025 (one emergency and one non-emergency) and several violations issued in 2023 regarding fire retardant material in the third-story public hall, including defects in the west wall, north wall, and ceiling, as well as a requirement to repaint with light colored paint to HPD's satisfaction. The building has also faced water-related issues, evidenced by a July 2023 complaint about a damp spot that resulted in violations being issued. The property has active violations related to external low-pressure inspections, with failures to file required reports for multiple years (2018-2023), as well as an open violation from April 2024 regarding bedbug reporting requirements.
Inspection records indicate consistent rodent compliance since 2017, with passed inspections in 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025, showing effective pest management. While the building had some rodent attraction concerns in July 2023 (which resulted in minor violations), subsequent inspections have consistently resulted in passing grades. The property's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing basic safety and comfort issues, though some violations remain unresolved as of the latest available data.
