51 Greenwich Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10014

The 8-unit, 5-story building at 51 Greenwich Avenue in the West Village was built in 1848 and is currently owned by Lanyard Realty Co. LLC. The property has experienced recurring pest issues, particularly with rodents, between 2021 and 2023, with multiple tenant-reported sightings of mice and rats.

Notably, in September 2022, an infestation was documented in Apartment 4, along with various other violations including water leak issues and construction deficiencies. The building experienced a heat and hot water emergency in February 2023, though these services were reportedly restored before the HPD inspection. More recently, the building has shown improved management of critical systems, with all rodent inspections from 2021 to early 2025 resulting in "Passed" ratings, including the most recent inspection in March 2025.

The property has maintained a consistent record of submitting Bedbug Reports since 2019, with no documented infestations in any unit across multiple reporting periods. Housing Maintenance Code violations have continued to be addressed, including self-closing door repairs required in both 2022 and 2023, though most violations have been marked as "Closed" after appropriate corrections were made. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing various issues through multiple 311 complaints and HPD inspections, suggesting active management, though the repeated nature of some complaints indicates ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly during the 2021-2022 period.
