40 Washington Square S, Manhattan, NY 10012
40 Washington Square South is a 5-story, 1951 OLD LAW TENEMENT building located in Greenwich Village, currently owned by Malcolm Carfrae. The building has experienced persistent issues with compliance and maintenance requirements over recent years. Notably, there are four open housing maintenance code violations from 2021 through 2024 regarding failure to file annual bedbug reports, which remains unresolved as of the most recent inspection in April 2024.
There are also several Department of Buildings (DOB) violations related to energy reporting requirements, including an active violation from June 2024 for failure to submit an Energy Efficiency Report (EER) for 2023, and a dismissed violation from May 2024 regarding benchmarking report submission, though this was confirmed as submitted after the violation was issued. The building has undergone multiple rodent control efforts in 2025, with consistent bait applications documented throughout the year, and two instances of rat activity noted in compliance inspections in March and May 2025. These ongoing rodent control measures suggest an active pest management program, though the persistence of such issues may impact resident comfort.
The property has also undergone elevator-related work, as evidenced by multiple permits issued in July 2019, which were associated with Kone Inc. and completed through 2023. While many of the historical violations have been resolved, the building's recent history shows continued challenges with regulatory compliance and pest management, particularly in 2024 and 2025.
