85 Vermilyea Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10034
85 Vermilyea Avenue is a 5-story, 58-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1924 and currently owned by Ezriel Weinberger. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues in 2023-2025, including multiple plumbing problems as recent as May 2025 involving bathtubs/showers and sinks.
The property has documented rodent activity in 2025, with inspections showing persistent rat presence, most recently confirmed in July 2025. Several apartment units have reported unsanitary conditions, including a notable mold violation from May 2025 and a documented mouse infestation in Apartment 22 in 2023. The building has experienced serious maintenance challenges, particularly affecting unit 22, which has had multiple violations requiring repairs to various components including bathroom fixtures, kitchen floor, and plaster surfaces documented between May and July 2023.
Temperature regulation issues have been documented in the hot water supply, with violations recorded in apartments 25 and 45 for exceeding maximum temperature limits or lack of hot water in late 2023 and early 2024. During 2025, several complaints were filed regarding general building conditions, including ventilation systems, window frames, radiator issues, and water leaks, though some inspections were unsuccessful due to access issues. While the building has maintained a relatively clean bedbug record with minimal infestations reported between 2021 and 2024, the persistent plumbing, pest control, and maintenance issues suggest ongoing challenges with building management and maintenance responsiveness.
