5025 Broadway, Manhattan, NY 10034

The 67-unit, 6-story building at 5025 Broadway in Inwood, owned by Gustavo Moran, has experienced significant maintenance challenges throughout 2024-2025, with recurring issues particularly related to heat and water systems. Between January 2025 and April 2025 alone, there were multiple complaints and emergency requests regarding heating and hot water outages, both building-wide and in individual apartments. The building has also faced persistent infrastructure problems, including plumbing issues leading to water supply disruptions, with the most recent water supply complaint filed in April 2025.

An examination of the building's records shows ongoing rodent activity, with multiple inspections between 2022 and 2025 indicating the presence of rats, though some inspections also noted bait applications. Recent housing maintenance code violations from December 2024 focused on Apartment 3K, revealing multiple safety concerns including rodent infestations, mold issues, and problems with windows and doors. The building's elevator service has been a notable concern, with multiple complaints regarding single-device operation and lack of alternate service between 2019 and 2025, though most of these complaints were ultimately closed with no violations found. The property has a documented history of bedbug infestations, with eight separate filings between 2018 and 2024, though all reported instances were marked as eradicated.

Additionally, several building systems appear to require attention, with ongoing documentation showing the need for elevator modernization and the installation of necessary safety equipment, as evidenced by ECB violations regarding DLM installation and critical examination reports. The building's maintenance history shows some regularization in addressing issues, with various permits issued for plumbing and elevator work between 2018 and 2020, though questions remain about the sufficiency of the response to recurring problems. Recent complaints have often been resolved through verification of restored services, though patterns of recurring issues suggest ongoing challenges with building systems. The property has also complied with many inspection requirements, though there are still active violations regarding EER submission requirements as of June 2024.
