2404 Amsterdam Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10033

2404 Amsterdam Avenue is a 5-story, 13-unit old law tenement building owned by 2400 Amsterdam Ave Realty Corp, built in 1902 in Washington Heights. The building has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues, with multiple complaints in late 2024 and early 2025 regarding these essential services, including two emergency complaints in January 2025. Recent unsanitary conditions have been documented, including complaints about mold and pests (most recently in March 2025), though HPD was unable to complete inspections for some of these complaints.

The building has a history of violations primarily affecting apartment 3S, documented in 2024, including issues with rodent and pest infestations, hot water supply, and plumbing problems, all of which have since been certified as corrected. The property has maintained regular rodent inspection compliance, passing all inspections from 2016 to present, with the most recent inspection in October 2024 showing no violations. Significant building-wide issues were documented in 2021, including defective masonry sills throughout all floors, for which the building received an Environmental Control Board violation with a $2,500 penalty.

Various apartment-specific violations remain open from 2021, including maintenance issues in apartment 4R such as inadequate hot water supply and required painting work. The building's management has demonstrated some responsiveness to maintenance issues, as evidenced by multiple complaints being marked as resolved, though access issues have sometimes prevented complete inspections or confirmation of corrections. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug-free status in recent years, with no reported infestations between 2020 and 2025.
