305 West 13th Street is a 6-story, 77-unit residential building located in Manhattan's West Village, built in 1964 and currently owned by Supreme Company I, LLC. The building has documented multiple instances of heating issues, with complaints about inadequate heat and hot water reported in December 2022 and December 2018, both of which were verified as corrected by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). There were also significant pest-related problems in September and October 2019, with three separate pest complaints filed within a one-month period, though no violations were issued upon inspection.

The building experienced various maintenance issues in 2018 including mold concerns, problems with walls and ceilings requiring paint/plaster work, and a bathtub/shower plumbing issue, all of which were addressed according to HPD records. More recently, the building has faced several compliance challenges, including violations of tenant safety posting requirements in September 2021, leading to fines related to the Safe Construction Bill of Rights and Tenant Protection Plan. In 2022, multiple violations were issued for failure to submit Energy Efficiency Reports, though these were subsequently dismissed after submission.

The building has maintained a good record in terms of rodent control, passing inspections from 2016 through 2024, and has shown recent improvements in bedbug management, with the most recent reports from 2024 indicating no active infestations. There was one notable incident involving the failure to post smoke and carbon monoxide detector requirements in 2018, which was corrected. The property has had regular permit activity, with multiple permits issued between 2018-2019 for various maintenance and repair work.
