301 West 4th Street, Manhattan, NY 10014

The three-story, two-family house at 301 West 4th Street in the West Village, owned by Greg Kirschenbaum, has experienced several notable maintenance and compliance issues over recent years. Most concerning is the building's active violation from September 2024 regarding the failure to file the required 2023 external low-pressure inspection, which marks a continued pattern of regulatory non-compliance.

This follows multiple similar violations between 2018 and 2021, though these earlier violations were eventually dismissed. The building has undergone regular rodent inspections, with mixed results; while it passed inspections in 2025, 2023, 2022, 2021, and 2020, there were significant issues in 2024 including noted rat activity in April and bait application in July, suggesting ongoing pest management challenges.

Encouragingly, the property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all reporting periods from 2019 through 2023 showing zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and no instances of re-infestation. A single Department of Buildings complaint was filed in late 2021 regarding an illegal advertising sign, which was inspected in June 2022 but resulted in no violations being warranted at that time. While the building has demonstrated compliance in various areas, the pattern of inspection filing violations and the recent rodent activity suggest areas requiring continued attention, though the lack of bedbug issues is a positive aspect of the building's maintenance history.
