196 Park Row, Manhattan, NY 10007
Chatham Towers Inc's 25-story, 250-unit residential building at 196 Park Row, constructed in 1965, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, there have been ongoing problems with heat and hot water, with emergency complaints filed in 2023 and again in June 2025, suggesting this remains a persistent concern.
The building has also faced challenges with water-related issues, as evidenced by multiple complaints regarding water leaks, most significantly in 2022 affecting apartment 13B, which also experienced problems with mold, ceiling damage, and paint/plaster issues that resulted in open violations as of 2022. Recent rodent activity has been documented throughout 2023 and into 2024, despite some inspections passing.
The building's management has faced enforcement actions related to construction safety, particularly in 2020-2021, when several violations were issued regarding scaffold safety and maintenance, though these were subsequently resolved. Monthly bedbug reports from 2020 through 2025 show no infestations or treatments have been necessary. All of the building's housing maintenance code violations and complaints have been addressed, with the most recent inspection in February 2025 showing compliance with rodent control requirements, representing a positive development in building maintenance.
