92 Wadsworth Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10033

The five-story, 15-unit building at 92 Wadsworth Avenue in Washington Heights, constructed in 1910, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues between 2024 and 2025. The most concerning recent incidents involve multiple attempts by HPD to inspect complaints regarding electrical problems, including lighting issues and power outages, as well as appliance-related concerns with an electric/gas range. Notably, there are building-wide electrical problems that have been documented as both emergency and non-emergency complaints.

The building has also faced sanitation challenges, with inspections in late 2024 addressing pest issues and garbage/recycling storage concerns, though no violations were found in these areas. Earlier in 2024, significant violations were documented in Apartment 3, including issues with window sashes, a water leak and mold condition in the bathroom ceiling, and safety concerns related to missing carbon monoxide and smoke detectors. The building has experienced power outages, both in 2024 and earlier in 2022, and there have been multiple instances requiring attention to door and window mechanisms.

While rodent inspections generally show compliance with pest control standards, there was a recorded instance of rat activity in October 2024, though subsequent inspections in December 2024 showed passing results. Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all recent annual reports showing zero affected units. The property has undergone various repairs and inspections, with recent Housing Maintenance Code violations being resolved, including issues with vestibule doors and window frames identified in late 2024.
