9 Sherman Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10040
The 6-story, 92-unit New Law Tenement at 9 Sherman Avenue in Inwood, built in 1923 and currently owned by 9 Sherman Associates LLC, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. As of mid-2025, there are multiple open complaints including water leaks, wall problems, appliance issues (refrigerator), and window frame concerns, all reported between May and June 2025. The building faced notable heat and hot water system problems in February 2025, with multiple tenant complaints, some of which were not able to be inspected due to access issues.
Several apartments have documented issues requiring attention, including heating problems in apartment 5N and door issues in apartments 1K, 2B, and 2J. The property has a history of rodent activity, with inspections in 2023 and 2024 showing rat activity, though recent inspections in 2025 passed. The building underwent various maintenance inspections and repairs in 2024-2025, including multiple Housing Maintenance Code complaints regarding flooring, paint/plaster issues, and an emergency door problem.
Earlier inspections in 2024 identified several violations, including a lack of heat in apartment 5N, missing window guards in apartment 5N, and multiple instances of mouse infestations in apartments 2A and 4I. The property has also been subject to environmental control board violations related to construction work and building maintenance, though these were resolved. Recent tenant safety inspections in late 2024 and early 2025 found no violations at the time of inspection, and the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations over the past four reporting periods (2021-2024). The most recent Department of Buildings inspections show some concerns but have generally resulted in either resolved violations or no violations being found.
