4520 Broadway, Manhattan, NY 10040
4520 Broadway is a 6-story, 54-unit residential building in Washington Heights built in 1925, currently owned by Rubin Pikus. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints filed between 2021 and 2024, including two recent complaints in November 2024. In addition, a notable pattern of maintenance issues has emerged, with violations related to water leaks, wall conditions, and interior maintenance documented in 2021.
The building's facade and safety features have also been concerning, with active violations as of 2025 regarding the condition of exterior walls and safety equipment. A significant violation from 2025 indicates structural concerns with the facade/retaining wall at the rear of the building, along with an active Environmental Control Board violation regarding failure to submit required safety inspection reports, with a penalty of $1,250. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections, consistently passing between 2016 and 2024, and there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the past eight reporting periods (2019-2024).
While the building has experienced various maintenance issues, including an emergency inspection for a food establishment in 2024, the results of these inspections generally show violations being addressed, though access issues have sometimes prevented thorough inspections. The building's management has faced penalties related to violation reporting requirements, as evidenced by the 2024 and 2018 ECB violations regarding failure to submit required facade inspection reports. Recent complaints from 2024 suggest ongoing challenges with heating systems in the building, which have persisted as a recurring issue over multiple years.
