Active open violations and persistent heat interruptions define the city record at this Highbridge rental.
This 36-unit pre-war building in Highbridge is structured under Nosotros Housing Development Fund Corp as regulated affordable housing. While the ownership structure provides regulatory stability, building operations show clear friction across winter heating and active housing code enforcement. Three key things to know:
Repeated winter heat cuts and restricted boiler access stand out in the file. The building logged 41 heat and hot water complaints in the last year, including multiple building-wide outages stretching through May 2026. Code enforcement open write-ups include an immediately hazardous Class C violation for locking the boiler room door against inspectors, alongside missing heating notice signage in the common areas.
Immediately hazardous code write-ups remain open across multiple apartments. The building carries 26 open code violations, including 7 immediately hazardous Class C items. Open issues range from active roach infestations in basement apartment W2 to missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, active kitchen water leaks, and uncorrected plaster damage in individual apartments.
Surrounding block filings reflect recurring indoor air quality complaints. Within three blocks of the building, four indoor air quality complaints were logged in the last 12 months, with the most recent call in July 2026. Air quality and vapor issues often travel through shared building risers or internal lightwells, making unit position inside the building critical.
