1766 Amsterdam Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10031

1766 Amsterdam Avenue is a 5-story, 8-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Hamilton Heights and owned by David Tennenbaum. The building, constructed in 1930, has experienced recurring water-related issues, with multiple complaints and violations documented between 2022-2024, including both slow and heavy flow leaks that affected various units, particularly Apartment 3R. As of April 2024, multiple violations were recorded for Apartment 3R, including mold conditions, defective plaster surfaces, and water leaks affecting the kitchen and ceiling areas.

The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) has conducted inspections of these complaints, and while some violations have been closed, several remained open as of August 2024. The building has maintained regular rodent inspections since 2018, with all receiving passing results, indicating no current rodent issues. Recent building maintenance concerns have included flooring/stairs issues and ceiling problems, though inspections often resulted in no violations being issued.

The property has demonstrated compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2019 through 2024, showing no recorded infestations during these periods. Historical data reveals other maintenance concerns, including general maintenance issues with the intercom system in 2021 and various structural concerns in previous years, though many of these were resolved through regular inspections and repairs. The building received two permits in 2018 for maintenance-related work, one for plumbing (PL) and another for electrical work (EW), both of which were properly issued and processed.
