7 West 8th Street, Manhattan, NY 10011

7 West 8th Street is a 5-story, 8-unit residential building located in Greenwich Village, constructed in 1851 and currently owned by Rosemarie Bruno. The building has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most significant incidents occurring in February 2019 when multiple tenants reported a lack of heat and hot water, followed by a water leak complaint.

The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) responded to these complaints, though they were unable to access units for the heat/hot water issue inspection, while the water leak inspection found no violations. That same month, two violations were issued for Unit O, concerning defective plaster and paint in the bathroom ceiling and malfunctioning self-closing doors, though these were certified as resolved by March 2019.

In 2021, a bedbug reporting violation was issued requiring the annual report filing, though records indicate no infestation issues in subsequent annual reports from 2021 through the most recent filing in December 2024, showing consistent zero counts for infested, eradicated, and re-infested units. The building has maintained a good record for rodent control, passing all inspections conducted between 2010 and 2024, including the most recent inspection in August 2024. While the building has experienced some maintenance issues in the past, particularly in early 2019, there have been no significant recurring problems noted in recent years, and the building's current status shows compliance with bedbug reporting requirements and successful rodent control measures.
