The 72-unit, 5-story New Law Tenement at 11 Seaman Avenue in Inwood, built in 1925 and currently owned by 19 Seaman LLC, has experienced several concerning issues in recent years. Most notably, in June 2025, there were multiple complaints regarding indoor air quality, specifically chemical vapors/gases/odors, with at least ten documented cases over a one-month period. The building has also faced persistent rodent problems, with rat activity documented in multiple inspections throughout 2023 and 2024, including a compliance inspection in June 2025.
Housing Maintenance Code violations from late 2024 and 2025 indicate ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly in basement apartment A, including issues with radiators, plaster surfaces, water leaks, and a history of pest infestations. The building's violation history shows consistent problems with building systems and maintenance compliance. Active violations as of 2024 include failures to file required energy benchmarking reports, and previous electrical safety concerns were documented between 2019-2021, including unauthorized electrical work in 2019.
A pattern of pest-related issues is evident, with multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions and vermin between 2019 and 2025. While there have been some resolved violations, such as those concerning carbon monoxide detectors and various maintenance issues in 11A, the frequency and nature of complaints suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance and safety compliance.
