1 Morton Square, Manhattan, NY 10014

1 Morton Square is a 14-story, 142-unit residential building located in the West Village, completed in 2002 and currently owned by Jesse Masyr. The building's recent history shows particular attention needed to its elevator systems, with active violations from 2019 related to uncorrected defects from a 2017 inspection, and a $625 violation for failure to provide proper notice prior to work. In 2020, the building failed to submit a required Cycle 8C report on exterior wall conditions, though this violation was subsequently resolved.

The property experienced an incident of illegal activity in July 2019, which resulted in an Oath Violation being served. On the pest management front, there have been no reported cases of bedbugs in any units over the past six years, as evidenced by multiple annual filings showing zero infested or eradicated units. The building's rodent control inspections have generally shown good results, with most recent inspections in 2023 and 2024 passing, though there was one instance of rat activity noted in April 2023.

The building has undergone regular maintenance evidenced by multiple permit issuances for electrical, plumbing, and other work, with the most recent permits issued in 2023-2024 suggesting ongoing attention to building systems and infrastructure. While there are some active violations related to elevator systems that warrant monitoring, the building's overall record shows no major safety concerns or recurring pest issues over the past several years. The property has maintained compliance with annual bedbug reporting requirements, and rodent inspections have generally resulted in passing grades, indicating effective pest management practices.
