1471 St Nicholas Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10033
The five-story, 18-unit tenement building at 1471 St Nicholas Avenue in Washington Heights, owned by Chris Deangelis, has experienced several concerning issues in recent years, most notably in 2025. There have been recurring problems with heat and hot water, evidenced by multiple emergency complaints in January 2025, though HPD closed these complaints without confirming access to inspect the conditions.
More recently in June 2025, the building faced complaints regarding unsanitary conditions (mold), door issues, and plumbing problems (toilet), though HPD inspections resulted in no violations for the mold complaint, while inspections for the door and toilet issues could not be completed. The building has undergone multiple rodent inspections in 2025, showing persistent rat activity with bait applications continuing through recent months. Previous issues from late 2024 include work-related violations in apartment 33, which required corrections for lead paint hazards, plaster repairs, and the replacement of smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.
The building's maintenance history shows regular inspections and bait applications for rodent control throughout 2024 and 2025, with significantly more bait applications compared to any other complaint type. In 2020, there were complaints regarding the boiler and certificate of occupancy, though these were ultimately resolved without finding violations. The property appears to have maintained an active record of addressing pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported since 2020, though rodent activity has remained an ongoing issue as evidenced by recent inspection results.
