140 West 4th Street, Manhattan, NY 10012
140 West 4th Street is a 6-story, 24-unit old law tenement building located in Greenwich Village, owned by Keystone 140-142 West Fourth LLC and constructed in 1900. The building has experienced recurring pest issues, particularly rodent infestation, with multiple complaints recorded in 2025 alone, including documented rodent sightings and unsanitary conditions in April 2025. The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene has conducted multiple inspections, some revealing violations.
In 2024, the building received violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, though between 2022-2024, all reported units were listed as non-infested. Significant maintenance and safety issues have emerged over the years, particularly in 2022, when multiple violations were recorded, including concerns about fire egress, brickwork repairs, and window guards. The building underwent inspections in 2022 showing problems with electrical equipment, improper wiring, and building maintenance.
Plumbing issues were documented in 2019, and there have been several instances of the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) being unable to complete inspections due to access issues, most notably in 2019 and 2021. The property has maintained regular rodent inspections, with the most recent compliance inspection in May 2025 passing all requirements, though an initial inspection in April 2025 noted rat activity. Building management has generally addressed violations when identified, with most being marked as closed after appropriate remedies were implemented.
