2129 Amsterdam Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10032

2129 Amsterdam Avenue is a 6-story, 21-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Scot Hirschfield. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly in the past year. As of mid-2025, there are multiple active violations and ongoing repair needs, including problems with water leaks, ceiling repairs, and pest control, particularly in apartment 63.

The building's elevator system has been a persistent concern, with multiple complaints about single device service and no alternate service between December 2022 and April 2025, resulting in violations and penalties totaling $12,250. Recent inspections in 2025 have documented plumbing, water leak, and appliance issues, with violations requiring correction. The building has also faced challenges with rodent control, achieving mixed compliance results in inspections between 2022 and 2025.

The property has numerous active violations related to safety systems, including missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in apartment 63, and has failed to certify correction of other immediately hazardous conditions. Infrastructure maintenance issues include requirements to repair or replace damaged hardwood flooring, address roof leaks, and fix plaster surfaces in various apartments. The building's accessibility issues and maintenance concerns have resulted in several Department of Buildings violations related to energy efficiency reporting and facade maintenance. Despite these challenges, there have been no reported bedbug infestations in recent years, and the property has demonstrated variable compliance with rodent inspections, showing some improvement in 2025.
