79 West Washington Plce, Manhattan, NY 10011

79 West Washington Place is an 8-story, 15-unit residential building located in Greenwich Village, built in 1915 and currently owned by Divya Rashad. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues over the past few years that warrant attention.

Most notably, there are two active violations as of 2024: one related to the failure to file the required FISP Cycle 9C Technical Report by the February 21, 2024 deadline, and another regarding elevator safety, which remains unaddressed since September 2019 despite previous inspection failures showing defects. In 2019, the building was cited for exterior maintenance issues, including spalling bricks and eroded mortar joints on both the west and east elevations, resulting in a $2,500 fine that has since been resolved.

The property has maintained a good track record with pest control, showing no reported bedbug infestations in any unit over the past five reporting periods from 2019 through 2024, and it has consistently passed rodent inspections since at least 2011, with the most recent inspection in September 2024 confirming compliance. While the building has undergone some permitted work in 2019, as evidenced by the issuance of an exterior work permit, the outstanding violations related to facade maintenance, elevator safety, and FISP reporting suggest ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges. The relatively stable pest control record is a positive aspect of the building's maintenance history.
