519 Hudson Street, Manhattan, NY 10014
The 90-unit, 5-story Old Law Tenement at 519 Hudson Street in the West Village, owned by Robert Kantor and constructed in 1889, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over recent years. Most concerning are the recurring pest control challenges, with multiple 311 complaints regarding unsanitary animal conditions and rodent activity reported from 2025 through 2024, including three dog-related complaints in 2025 alone.
A notable cluster of housing maintenance code complaints in early 2023 (February) addressed emergency situations involving mold and pest infestations in Apartment 2FN, while additional complaints cited issues with flooring, stairs, and various building systems. The Department of Buildings has documented several violations, including a 2023 notice regarding an improperly installed self-closing door mechanism at the first-story vestibule, and previous years showed concerns about the building's cornice condition and unauthorized work on the roof fence installations. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of environmental control board violations, particularly in 2021-2022, focusing on building maintenance and construction work.
Recent inspections have demonstrated some improvements, with rodent inspections in 2025 showing passed results, though bait was applied during several inspections in 2024. The property has maintained an active bedbug reporting history, consistently showing zero infested units across multiple reporting periods from 2022 through 2024, suggesting effective management of this particular pest issue. While the building has passed several recent health department inspections, the frequency of pest-related complaints and building maintenance violations indicates ongoing challenges with maintaining optimal living conditions in this historic structure.
