201 Wadsworth Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10033
The 68-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement building at 201 Wadsworth Avenue in Washington Heights, owned by Joseph Nehmadi and constructed in 1920, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years. Most recently, in June 2025, there is an open complaint regarding no lighting conditions, following a power outage incident in April 2025. The building has faced recurring problems with basic utilities and infrastructure, including multiple heating/hot water complaints (January 2025), electrical issues (2024-2025), and various unsanitary conditions including mold, pest infestations, and garbage storage problems throughout 2024.
A series of Housing Maintenance Code violations were documented in late 2024 related to fire safety materials, roof leaks, and public hall maintenance, though most have been certified as corrected by December 2024. The building's history shows persistent elevator and electrical system concerns, with multiple complaints between 2019-2023 regarding elevator service and one recorded electrical wiring issue in 2021. Recent inspections for bedbugs (2022-2024) show no reported infestations, and the building has passed recent rodent inspections (2023-2024), suggesting some improvements in pest management.
Environmental violations were noted in 2018-2019 related to elevator maintenance and door mechanisms, with fines imposed. The property has also had compliance issues with energy reporting requirements, though violations from 2019-2021 were ultimately dismissed. While some building systems and maintenance issues have been addressed, the current open electrical complaint and recent history of utility problems indicate ongoing infrastructure concerns that may affect resident comfort and safety.
