Washington Heights pre-war rental with a lingering backlog of unresolved violations and some winter heating friction.
Built in 1909, this pre-war rental changed hands in March 2023 for $10,947,177. Today, day-to-day operations are handled by Alma Realty Corp under head officer George Sakellaris. Three things to know:
Twenty-one open violations remain unresolved. While none of these active cases are flagged as immediately hazardous, they represent a lingering backlog of repairs that have yet to be officially cleared. For a mid-sized property, a double-digit stack of open violations means management is slow to address and sign off on maintenance paperwork.
Ten air quality complaints and seven restaurant odor complaints within three blocks. These issues have flared up over the last year, suggesting ventilation or riser bleed from ground-floor commercial spaces. Odors and vapors can seep between floors, making them nearly impossible to detect during a quick daytime walkthrough.
Ten heating and hot water complaints logged during the last cold season. Between October 18, 2025, and February 27, 2026, residents filed ten separate complaints about heating and hot water outages. While these cases are currently marked as closed, the concentration suggests a winter boiler struggle.
