31 Bedford Street is a 6-story, 36-unit New Law tenement building located in New York City's West Village, built in 1907 and currently owned by Fernando Alba. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water malfunction, with multiple complaints logged between 2020 and 2022, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. Most recently, there were heat/hot water complaints in November 2022 and January 2022, though inspections confirmed restoration of services in both instances.
The building has also faced challenges with rodent control, evidenced by several 311 complaints and inspections between 2021 and 2025, including a 2024 rodent inspection that initially failed for "Other Reasons" before passing later that year. A food poisoning complaint from March 2024 was still in progress as of April 2025, and there have been multiple food-related complaints, including a recent 2025 complaint about rodents/insects/garbage. The property has undergone some maintenance and enforcement actions in recent years, with three work without permit violations recorded between December 2024 and January 2025, and a building stability complaint from 2020 that resulted in an Oath violation.
Notably, the building has maintained a clean record in terms of bedbug infestations, with only one unit reporting an incident in 2018, and no infestations reported in the past five years. Environmental Control Board violations were issued in 2020 regarding loose plaster caused by water damage, resulting in a $625 penalty. The building's permit history shows regular maintenance work, with multiple permits issued for various repairs and maintenance categories between 2018 and 2019.
