270 Convent Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10031
270 Convent Avenue is a 10-story, 60-unit residential building constructed in 1916, currently owned by Naisha Verni and designated as a New Law Tenement. The building has experienced recurring issues with water-related problems, including three documented water leaks in 2025-2024, and multiple heat and hot water complaints affecting the entire building, particularly in 2025 and late 2024. There have been several health and maintenance concerns, including multiple reports of mold (October 2024) and a pest infestation (May 2024) for which violations were issued.
The property has known violations regarding elevator maintenance and safety, with active Environmental Control Board violations related to elevator door lock monitoring and failure to submit required critical examination reports since 2020, resulting in substantial penalties totaling over $20,000. The building has open violations from a 2024 inspection regarding self-closing doors and light fixtures in apartment 9F, as well as multiple water leak and maintenance issues in apartment 6B requiring various repairs. Recent inspections have shown improvements in pest and rodent management, with the most recent rodent inspection in June 2025 passing successfully.
The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with zero reported cases in recent years (2024-2025). However, there are active violations related to energy efficiency reporting that require attention, according to the 2023-2024 inspection findings. The property has generally passed rodent inspections consistently since 2017, with one failed inspection in December 2023 for other reasons. While some issues have been addressed through violations and repairs, the pattern of recurring water-related problems and heating system complaints suggests ongoing infrastructure challenges within the building.
