716 Greenwich Street, Manhattan, NY 10014

The five-story, 12-unit tenement building at 716 Greenwich Street in the West Village, owned by Felix Bernardo, has experienced several notable maintenance issues over recent years, with the most current concern being an open complaint filed in February 2025 regarding unsanitary conditions related to garbage and recycling storage (both through the 311 system and Housing Maintenance Code). While the property has maintained a relatively clean record regarding pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported in the last six years, there have been periodic rodent-related issues.

The building passed its most recent rodent inspection in August 2024, following a compliance inspection in May 2023, though it had failed an initial inspection in April 2023 for Other Reasons and had documented rat activity in July 2022. The Department of Buildings recorded a complaint in December 2024 regarding work performed without a permit in this occupied multiple dwelling, though this complaint was referred to the Department of Consumer Affairs.

Historically, the building has consistently passed inspections relating to rodent conditions, with all inspections from 2019 through 2021 showing compliance. The property has also had one mobile food vendor-related complaint in 2023 that was subsequently closed. The persistent issue with garbage/recycling storage and the recent work without permit complaint suggest areas of ongoing concern, while the absence of pest issues (specifically bedbugs) over the past several years is a positive aspect of the building's maintenance history.
