Six Class C hazardous violations and a locked boiler room headline the active issues here.
This 20-unit Hell's Kitchen walk-up carries 12 open housing-code violations, half of them at the immediately-hazardous level. Between a locked boiler room and chronic heat complaints, the building shows clear signs of ongoing deferred maintenance. Three things to know:
Heat complaints remain frequent, and access to the boiler room has been an issue. Inspectors issued a hazardous citation in April 2026 because the basement boiler room was locked and inaccessible during an inspection. The building carries 64 heat and hot water complaints over three years, including entire-building outages logged as recently as May 2026.
Multiple active violations concentrate in a single apartment line. A single line of apartments accounts for a heavy share of recent write-ups. Apartment 3FE received six open violations between April and May 2026 alone, covering defective window counterbalances, broken window springs, leaking bathroom faucets, and an inoperable foyer buzzer.
Infestation write-ups and trash conditions show up in recent filings. Inspectors issued hazardous pest citations for roach infestations in first- and second-floor units, while tenants filed 9 rat complaints at the property over the last three years. The front yard also drew a violation in June 2026 for rubbish accumulation.
