123 Washington Street, Manhattan, NY 10006
The 56-story, 223-unit residential building at 123 Washington Street in the Financial District, owned by Scott Gericke and completed in 2007, has faced several significant maintenance and regulatory issues over recent years. Most concerning is an active complaint from January 2025 regarding unsanitary conditions with pests that HPD was unable to inspect, following a pattern of pest-related issues with prior complaints in 2022 and 2024. The building has experienced persistent water-related problems, including multiple plumbing issues between 2024 and 2025 involving water supply complaints, and earlier water leak issues in 2022.
Heating and hot water problems affecting the entire building were reported in November 2024, along with mold and unsanitary conditions requiring HPD inspection. More recent maintenance concerns have centered around elevator issues, with multiple complaints in 2025 regarding devices on the property, some resulting in Oath Violations. The building currently faces two active ECB violations from October 2023 related to zoning and open-air cafe operations, each with a penalty of $5,000. The property has maintained a clean bedbug record since 2019, with no reported infestations in recent years, and has passed multiple rodent inspections, though recent inspections in 2025 indicated rat activity and compliance failures.
The building's maintenance history reveals a pattern of delayed responses and access issues during inspections, particularly for heat/hot water and water supply problems in 2024-2025. Regulatory compliance has been inconsistent, with several violations related to elevator maintenance, heat/hot water systems, and inspection requirements. The property has generally complied with bedbug reporting requirements, though there were previous violations noted between 2021-2022 regarding annual bedbug report filings. The building's emergency response systems have been activated multiple times, including for pest control and water supply issues, indicating ongoing maintenance challenges.
