161 Hudson Street, Manhattan, NY 10013

161 Hudson Street is a 9-story, 24-unit residential building located in Manhattan's Tribeca neighborhood. Built in 1912 and now operating as a converted Class A condominium, the property has experienced several significant events in recent years.

Most notably, in early 2024, the building faced an incident involving unauthorized electrical work at a commercial space on the first floor, which resulted in loose electrical cables hanging from the ceiling to the floor. This led to a Department of Buildings (DOB) violation, though the stop-work order was subsequently rescinded and no penalties were imposed. The building has also undergone regular rodent inspections between 2010 and 2018, all of which passed, indicating generally good pest control maintenance.

The property's complaint history shows relatively few issues, with three notable complaints in recent years: a compliance tracking complaint in October 2024 (which found no violations), a complaint about work without a permit in January 2024 (related to the aforementioned electrical issue), and a 2021 complaint regarding illegal commercial use in a residential zone (which also found no violations). Importantly, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with no reported infestations in the past five years, and has had regular permit issuances for various work, particularly between 2018-2021, suggesting ongoing maintenance and improvements to the building systems. The most recent DOB inspection in October 2024 found no violations, indicating current compliance with building codes.
