125 West Washington Plce, Manhattan, NY 10014
125 West Washington Place is a 6-story, 30-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1915 and currently owned by Isaac Benishai. The building has experienced ongoing elevator issues, with multiple violations documented between 2022-2024 regarding single device operation and lack of alternate service, though these were ultimately resolved. There were significant concerns about illegal transient use in Apartment 4D, leading to multiple ECB violations in 2024 related to fire safety systems, means of egress, and sprinkler requirements, though some of these violations were marked as resolved while others remain active with penalties totaling $3,500.
Recent inspections indicate recurring issues with door and window maintenance, including frames and locks, though no violations were found in 2024-2025 inspections. The property has faced structural concerns, with the most recent DOB inspection in 2025 documenting step cracks near window lintels on all floors and masonry issues, though no violations were issued at that time. The building has maintained an active rodent control program, with regular inspections showing generally positive results, though recent complaints about mouse sightings were documented in late 2024.
Other maintenance issues have included problems with sanitation and garbage storage, as well as various door-related problems noted in multiple HPD complaints. The building's bedbug history shows relatively few incidents, with most recent reports (2022-2024) showing no infestations, though there was one case in 2021 and another in 2019 involving unit 2A. The property has undergone several Health Department rodent inspections, with the most recent showing compliance.
