116 West 13th Street, Manhattan, NY 10011

116 West 13th Street is a 7-story, Class B residential building in Manhattan's West Village, constructed in 1931 and owned by Daniel Hochberg. The property has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years, particularly during 2024-2025, with multiple complaints and violations related to construction safety compliance, including improperly secured scaffolding, inadequate guard rails, and hazardous material storage. There have also been numerous complaints about after-hours work and work done without proper permits.

The building's most recent issues include three "Failure to Maintain" complaints in 2025, though these were resolved. Building systems maintenance has been a recurring concern, with multiple violations related to energy efficiency reporting and bedbug reporting requirements, though these were primarily dismissed or resolved. The rodent control situation at the property has shown improvement, with the most recent inspection in March 2025 passing without issues, following several months of remediation efforts in 2023, including multiple bait applications and the identification of rat activity in May 2023.

Air quality concerns were noted in late 2023, resulting in a referral to the Department of Environmental Protection. The building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2022, reporting zero infested units in the most recent filings. While the property has had numerous violations and service requests over the years, many have been resolved or dismissed upon inspection, and recent records indicate there may be improvements in building maintenance and pest control as of 2025.
