1806 Amsterdam Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10031

1806 Amsterdam Avenue is a 9-unit, 5-story New Law Tenement building located in Hamilton Heights, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Jose Mejias. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints registered between November 2024 and December 2024, including both building-wide and apartment-specific concerns. Three separate heating complaints were filed in December 2024 alone (one being a duplicate of an existing complaint), and there have been five heating-related complaints in total from late 2024 to early 2025.

In addition to the heating problems, there were complaints about water leaks (including a slow leak), window frame issues, and wall conditions that required attention in late 2024. The building has also experienced multiple maintenance challenges, including pest infestations in 2023 (with documented mouse issues in apartments 4B and 5A), mold problems in apartment 4B, and painting requirements. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections since 2018, with all inspections showing compliance (passed status), indicating effective pest management. Notably, from 2019 to 2022, there were several periods with documented bedbug-free status across all units.

The building's history includes a significant complaint regarding plumbing concerns in August 2022, which resulted in a Full Stop Work Order. Earlier violations from 2018 included window repairs needed in unit 5A. Most recently, in December 2024, the building exhibited compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing no infested or re-infested units during the 2023-2024 reporting period. While there have been numerous complaints regarding various maintenance issues, most have been resolved through proper inspection and correction processes, though recurring heating problems suggest an ongoing systems challenge.
