29 Chittenden Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10033

The three-story, 10-unit residential building at 29 Chittenden Avenue in Washington Heights, owned by Andrew Weadehan, has experienced recurring heating and water issues over the past few years. Most notably, there have been two heat/hot water complaints in 2025 and 2024, both affecting the entire building, with inspection access problems noted in 2025. The building has also faced significant water-related issues, including multiple slow leak complaints in 2024 and 2022, and a 2024 violation regarding inadequate hot water in apartment 3C.

Recent violations from October 2024 include multiple issues in unit 3C, such as ceiling leaks in the kitchen and living room, as well as defects in plastered surfaces. The building's maintenance record shows consistent attention to rodent control, with inspections passing as recently as October 2024, though there was one instance of rat activity noted in 2021. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in the past seven reporting periods from 2019 to 2024.

A violation from June 2023 regarding failure to file the 2019 external low-pressure inspection remains active. While the building has undergone various inspections and received necessary permits (including a permit issued in October 2020), the recurring heating and water issues, particularly the recent violations affecting basic amenities, are notable concerns. The building's overall history shows a pattern of water-related problems, including leaks and inadequate hot water, alongside periodic maintenance and inspection responses by various city departments.
