23 West 10th Street, Manhattan, NY 10011

The four-story, seven-unit building at 23 West 10th Street in Greenwich Village, built in 1839 and currently owned by Giselle Vazquez, has experienced significant maintenance issues in late 2023, particularly regarding heat and hot water systems. Between November 20 and 29, 2023, multiple emergency service requests were filed related to building-wide heat and hot water problems, with some complaints remaining unresolved due to lack of access for inspections.

The building also underwent inspections on December 2, 2023, resulting in several violations regarding self-closing doors at the roof bulkhead and a basement vestibule door, all classified as Class C violations that were certified as corrected on December 18, 2023. The property's historical record shows consistent compliance with rodent inspections, having passed all inspections from 2010 through 2024, and no bedbug infestations have been reported in the past eight years (2019-2024).

Previous building management issues include a 2019 elevator violation related to inspection defects and complaints about an illegal after-hours work in 2021, though most historical violations seem to have been resolved. The building has maintained an active permit history, with several issued permits for various maintenance and improvement work between 2019 and 2021, particularly focusing on elevator and exterior work. While the recent heat and hot water issues are concerning, the building's overall maintenance record shows regular attention to compliance and safety standards, with prompt response to most violations once identified.
