143 Wadsworth Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10033

143 Wadsworth Avenue is a five-story, 15-unit New Law Tenement building located in Washington Heights, constructed in 1907 and currently owned by 143 Wadsworth Ave HDFC. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with three emergency complaints filed between June 2022 and February 2023, all involving the entire building. Notably, the February 2023 complaint could not be investigated due to lack of access.

While violations were issued for the June and July 2022 complaints, the specific nature of these violations is not detailed in the available records. The building has maintained compliance with rodent inspections, passing all nine inspections conducted between 2017 and 2024, including the most recent inspection in October 2024. The property has documented various housing maintenance violations, including an open class A violation as of April 2024 regarding the failure to file the required annual bedbug report.

Previous violations include a series of fire door-related issues in 2018 involving apartment 4A, which were resolved through required replacements and modifications. The building's bedbug reporting history shows no recorded instances of infestation or re-infestation during the 2020-2022 and 2021-2022 reporting periods, with all reported units listed as "0" for infested, eradicated, and re-infested dwelling units. The property has demonstrated ongoing efforts to maintain safety and compliance, with regular inspections showing consistent passing results for rodent presence, though persistent heat and hot water issues remain a notable concern across multiple reporting periods.
