1561 Vyse Avenue is a 3-unit, 3-story residential building located in East Morrisania, constructed in 1901 and currently owned by Ana Pichardo. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, with multiple emergency complaints reported between 2021 and 2024, including three separate incidents in January 2024 alone. The most recent complaint from April 2025 regarding water supply issues remains unresolved.

The property has also faced electrical problems, including power outages and lighting issues, with emergency complaints documented in 2022 and 2023. Recent inspections have revealed several compliance issues that require attention. There are open Class C violations from 2022 concerning roach infestations and window repairs in Apartment 3. The building also has several open Class A violations from 2021 related to safety requirements, including missing carbon monoxide and smoke detector notices, as well as the need to post information about the building's registration number and housing information guide.

While the building has maintained a consistent record of submitting annual bedbug reports showing zero infested units from 2019 to 2025, rodent activity has been documented in 2013 and 2022, with the most recent inspections passing compliance requirements. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of systematic response to resident complaints, with most issues being addressed and closed, though some remain outstanding. The property's utilities infrastructure appears to require ongoing attention, particularly regarding heating and hot water systems, as evidenced by the frequency of related complaints. The building's age and converted status as a "HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A" property suggest historical context that may influence current maintenance dynamics.
