152 Dyckman Street, Manhattan, NY 10040

152 Dyckman Street is a 5-story, 18-unit New Law Tenement building in Inwood, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by John Pavon. The property has experienced significant heating system challenges in early 2025, with eight consecutive emergency heat/hot water complaints between January and February 2025, though these have subsequently closed with some violations being issued. During this same period, two additional heating complaints were opened but access issues prevented full inspections, leading to another January 2025 complaint requiring re-filing if conditions persisted.

The building has also been subject to various maintenance issues, with open violations from 2023 including electrical outlet problems, leaks, and sanitation concerns in Apartment 5C, particularly regarding mold and plumbing fixtures. A series of rodent baiting and inspection efforts were conducted throughout 2023-2025, with initial inspections passing but showing ongoing management efforts to maintain pest control. More recent building maintenance issues include an open emergency complaint regarding window frames (June 2025) and a slow water leak (June 2025), indicating continuing maintenance challenges.

The building's record shows a pattern of heating system difficulties, with multiple complaints spanning several months. While the property has maintained compliance with rodent control requirements, as evidenced by passing inspections and bait applications, other maintenance issues persist. The presence of open violations from 2023 related to various maintenance issues in Apartment 5C, combined with recent complaints about window frames and water leaks, suggests that while some issues have been addressed, others remain outstanding. The building's age and history of maintenance issues, particularly regarding heating systems, make it important for prospective tenants to remain informed about ongoing maintenance patterns and building conditions.
