400 Convent Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10031
400 Convent Avenue is a 6-story, 37-unit residential building built in 1910 and currently owned by Dabni Harvey. The building has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in recent years, particularly in 2023-2024, including recurring problems with heat and hot water, pest infestations, and multiple citations for inadequate paint and plaster maintenance.
Notably, two active violations remain in Apartment 24 as of September 2023, involving defective plastered surfaces and missing carbon monoxide detectors. The building has also had significant elevator-related problems, with multiple inspections revealing issues such as an untagged car button station, unlevel car floor, and emergency stop switch problems, along with violations related to door lock monitoring and inspection requirements. The property has faced various challenges with building systems and safety compliance, including open violations for failing to file required external low-pressure inspections from 2019-2021, and multiple active violations related to energy efficiency reporting requirements.
While the bedbug reporting for the past two years (2023-2024) indicates minimal infestation issues, there have been persistent rodent activity concerns, with multiple inspections in 2023-2024 showing rat activity and the need for bait application. Recent building inspection results from May 2025 have generally been passing, though an August 2024 inspection noted active rat activity. The building has undergone several façade inspections and other compliance checks, with some violations being resolved while others remain open, indicating ongoing maintenance and safety compliance challenges.
