1791 Amsterdam Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10031

1791 Amsterdam Avenue is a 5-story, 27-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1920 in Hamilton Heights, currently owned by Citywide Preservation LLC. The building has experienced several notable maintenance issues over the past year, particularly in late 2024 and early 2025, with multiple HPD violations related to flooring problems, door frame issues, mold, pest infestations, and water damage.

Of particular concern was the situation in Apartment 2C, where multiple violations were documented in October 2024, including problems with mold, pests, and inadequate safety equipment such as missing carbon monoxide detectors and smoke detectors. The building also faced heating water supply challenges in early 2024, with complaints logged for both individual apartments and the entire building in January and May of that year. While the property has undergone rodent inspections from 2021 to 2025 with most results showing compliance, there were two failed inspections in 2023, indicating some ongoing pest management challenges.

The building's recent history includes a verified inspection for unauthorized work in September 2022 related to bathroom modifications in Apartment 3C, though this violation was later resolved. The your2bedbug reporting records from 2019 through 2025 consistently show no reported infestations since late 2019, and recent rodent inspections from February 2025 and August 2024 show compliance, suggesting improvements in pest control measures. Multiple HPD inspections in late 2024 resulted in various violations that required owner remediation, including problems with floor tiles, plaster surfaces, and visible mold conditions, particularly in Apartment 2C.
