1627 Amsterdam Avenue, Manhattan

    Active Class C violations for pests and egress pair with heavy commercial noise and food establishment calls.

    This 18-unit Hamilton Heights walk-up carries 22 open housing-code violations, with 11 flagged at the immediately hazardous Class C tier. Beside active pest and fire-egress citations, the building's own record is heavy on commercial noise and food establishment complaints. Three things to know:

    Repeated calls target ground-floor food establishment operations and odor bleed. The building record includes 10 food establishment complaints. Restaurant and commercial food service venting can bleed odors and heat through shared risers and interior light wells, making line-of-travel proximity critical for prospective tenants.

    Hazardous pest infestations span multiple units alongside active egress violations. Inspectors logged Class C violations in June and August 2026 for roach and rat infestations across Apt 21, Apt 22, the basement, and the fire passage. A June vacate order was also issued for cellar apartment CC, alongside citations for blocked egress and a defective fire escape ladder.

    Commercial noise and late-night parties dominate the surrounding block. The building itself has logged 241 commercial noise complaints, while 724 commercial noise calls were filed within three blocks over the last year—overwhelmingly for loud music and late-night party sound.
