42 West 10th Street, Manhattan, NY 10011
42 West 10th Street is a 10-story, 46-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1917 and currently owned by Susan Schwenger. The building experienced significant heating and plumbing issues in October 2019, with multiple tenants reporting building-wide problems through 311 complaints, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) found no violations.
More recently, in 2024, there was one complaint regarding unlicensed/illegal activity, and several tenant safety inspections in 2021 resulted in "No Violation Warranted" findings. The building has maintained good pest control records, with bedbug reports showing only one infested unit in 2022, and zero infestations since then through the most recent 2024 report. Rodent inspections have generally passed, with only one failure noted in May 2019.
The building's safety record includes a 2020 incident involving suspended scaffolding that resulted in a $2,500 penalty for the contractor, though this was fully rescinded. A violation for failure to file the 2017 boiler inspection report remains active as of now. The building has shown consistent compliance with housing maintenance codes in recent years, with all violations either resolved or showing no current status, and all recent permits (2020-2021) appear to have been properly issued.
