474 West Broadway, Manhattan, NY 10012
474 West Broadway is a 5-story, mixed residential and artists' building constructed in 1880 in SoHo, containing 17 units and currently owned by Helen Mayers. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues over recent years, with the most concerning being a March 2025 complaint regarding work without a permit in an occupied multiple dwelling, which was referred to the Department of Consumer Affairs.
There are active violations from 2019 related to failure to perform mandatory elevator inspections, and an unresolved violation from July 2022 regarding unverified work done under a permit due to access issues. A 2022 plumbing complaint resulted in a stop work order being rescinded, and the building underwent a tenant safety inspection in September 2023 with compliance verified. The building's elevator system has presented persistent challenges, with multiple violations recorded between 2019 and 2020 regarding failure to correct defects and complete required inspections.
While the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with zero reported cases from 2019 through 2024, there were some rodent issues noted in 2021, though subsequent inspections from 2022 to 2025 have passed with no rat activity reported. The property has demonstrated an effort to maintain compliance with various permits being issued between 2018 and 2019 for various work types, including electrical and equipment-related projects. The frequency of inspections and the nature of complaints suggest ongoing maintenance and compliance monitoring is required for this historic building.
