24 St Nicholas Place, Manhattan, NY 10031
24 St Nicholas Place is a five-story, 20-unit residential building in Harlem, constructed in 1905 and currently owned by Mike Spira. The property is experiencing several ongoing maintenance issues as of 2025, including multiple open complaints regarding water leaks (heavy flow), electrical problems (lighting and outlet/switch issues), and new flooring concerns as of June 2025. These recent complaints, especially the water leak categorized as an emergency, raise potential safety and habitability concerns.
The building has undergone several inspections and received multiple violations in the past two years, notably between October 2023 and April 2024, for various issues including garbage/recycling storage problems, ceiling and wall conditions, and required repairs to fire retardant materials. Earlier violations from 2023-2024 included issues with the building's roof, sanitary conditions, and paint/plaster requirements, most of which have since been closed. The building's rodent inspections throughout 2024 showed ongoing rat activity, with multiple bait applications between January and September 2024, though an initial inspection in February 2025 passed.
The property has shown consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2020-2024, with no reported infestations in the past three filing periods. Three complaints regarding illegal conversion investigations were filed in 2019, but inspectors were unable to gain access to the property for verification. Two Housing Maintenance Code violations remain open as of now, specifically related to the front area drainage and waste management conditions, while an upcoming inspection that passed in February 2025 indicates some recent progress in pest control efforts.
