1760 Amsterdam Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10031

1760 Amsterdam Avenue is a 5-story, 17-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1930, currently owned by 501 W 147 LLC. The property has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, with multiple emergency complaints reported between 2023 and 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. In addition, there were three power outage incidents in July 2023 that required immediate emergency attention, though no violations were issued following inspections.

A significant cluster of maintenance issues was identified in Apartment 3B during a July 2023 inspection, including multiple defective electrical outlets and light switches, as well as the absence of a carbon monoxide detector. While these violations were ultimately certified as corrected by August 2023, the building has continued to experience various maintenance challenges. Recent inspections from 2024-2025 indicate ongoing pest control efforts, with rat activity confirmed in multiple inspections and bait application occurring throughout the year.

The building's mechanical systems have faced scrutiny, with several violations issued for failure to file required pressure inspections between 2018 and 2024, though most were dismissed. Historical records show previous boiler-related complaints in 2019 and 2021, including one case where the inspector was unable to gain access to the property. The building's management has generally responded to complaints, with many being resolved or closed after correction verification, though there was one instance in July 2023 where HPD could not gain access for inspection regarding heat/hot water issues. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with zero reported cases in the past seven reporting periods from 2019 through 2025.
