1804 Amsterdam Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10031

1804 Amsterdam Avenue is a 5-story, 9-unit tenement building located in Hamilton Heights, owned by David Schwartz and constructed in 1910. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple emergency complaints documented in 2025 and 2022, most recently in April 2025 when multiple complaints were filed regarding the entire building's heating problems, though inspectors were unable to gain access for verification.

Between 2019-2020, apartment 5B faced significant maintenance issues including pest infestations, mold, and multiple plumbing problems, which were eventually resolved. The building has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections, with inspections conducted approximately every six months since 2019 showing no violations.

Recent records (2021-2025) indicate improvements in pest management, with no bedbug infestations reported in the last five annual filings, and only one rodent sighting complaint in 2022 that was promptly addressed. The building's maintenance violations from 2019-2020, primarily affecting apartment 5B, included issues with plaster surfaces, bathroom fixtures, and roof leaks, though most of these were officially closed by early 2021. Notably, multiple heat and hot water complaints have been documented throughout the building's recent history, suggesting ongoing challenges with the building's heating system, though many of these complaints have been resolved through tenant verification rather than formal inspections.
