700 Ft Washington Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10040
700 Fort Washington Avenue is a 6-story, 74-unit residential building constructed in 1949, currently owned by Steven Kurlander. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, with multiple complaints filed between 2024 and 2025 indicating building-wide problems. Most recently, in June 2025, two complaints were filed and closed, though one remained open pending inspection verification.
A series of emergency complaints regarding building access routes (line of travel) were filed and closed in April 2025. The building has also faced significant maintenance issues as evidenced by multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations in 2022-2023, particularly in apartment 1K, which had problems with bathroom tiles, mold, hot water temperature, and missing safety devices. The building's management has multiple active ECB violations dating from 2024 regarding failure to comply with the Commissioner's orders and to file required reports, including the FISP Cycle 9B unsafe report and Critical Examination documentation from 2023.
The property has undergone several inspections regarding pest control, with bedbug reports from 2022-2024 indicating no infestations during the reported periods, though rodent inspections show mixed results with rat activity noted in 2024. The building's systems and safety features have faced ongoing scrutiny, with violations regarding smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, self-closing doors, and security systems documented between 2021-2022. While many past violations have been resolved or dismissed, the presence of active violations as of 2024-2025 related to building safety inspections and reporting requirements suggests ongoing compliance challenges. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of recurring issues with basic services and systems, requiring frequent intervention by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development.
