87 Christopher Street, Manhattan, NY 10014
87 Christopher Street is a 6-story, 20-unit old law tenement building located in Manhattan's West Village, constructed in 1872 and currently owned by Jason Fein. The building has experienced recurring heating issues, particularly in early 2022 when three separate heat/hot water complaints were filed for the entire building between January 30 and February 14, all marked as emergencies but subsequently resolved. The summer of 2022 saw multiple safety concerns addressed, including carbon monoxide and smoke detector violations in Apartments 10 and 15, along with door-related issues, all of which were certified as resolved by August 2022.
The building underwent several inspections for rodent activity between 2018 and 2025, with the most recent inspections in early 2025 passing without issues, though there were periods of rat activity noted in 2021 and 2024. The property has maintained an active record of addressing various maintenance issues, including multiple complaints about flooring conditions and mold in September 2021 that could not be inspected due to access issues. A significant number of emergency door/window-related complaints were filed in July 2022, all of which were closed.
The building's management has shown compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2019 through 2024, with no infestations reported in any of the annual filings. Recent Department of Buildings activity includes two complaints filed in December 2024 regarding work without a permit, though these were referred to the Department of Consumer Affairs for further review. The building's permit history shows proper documentation and issuance of permits in both 2019 and 2020 for various maintenance work.
