71 West Washington Plce, Manhattan, NY 10011

The six-story, 10-unit building at 71 West Washington Place in Greenwich Village, owned by David McCorkle and constructed in 1848, has experienced several notable maintenance and compliance issues over recent years. Most concerning is the active Environmental Control Board (ECB) violation from October 2022, with a $10,000 penalty, related to failure to submit an acceptable critical examination report of exterior walls and appurtenances.

Other significant violations include a May 2021 ECB citation for poor maintenance of building exterior walls and facades, with visible cracks and deterioration noted during inspection, as well as earlier violations from 2020 regarding failure to submit required reports under Section 28-302.4. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug reporting compliance, with the most recent filings (up to January 2025) showing zero infestation or eradication cases. All previous bedbug reports from 2018 onward similarly indicated no infestation issues.

The property has also demonstrated consistent upkeep in terms of rodent control, passing all inspections from 2010 through 2024. While there have been various Department of Buildings violations over the years, many from 2019-2021 were dismissed based on subsequent inspections showing corrected defects. Recent bedbug and rodent inspection results suggest improved conditions, though the outstanding ECB violations related to exterior maintenance and report submissions remain a notable concern.
