581 Hudson Street is a 5-story, 22-unit residential building in the West Village, constructed in 1873 and currently owned by Julio Hernandez. The property has experienced persistent maintenance challenges, particularly in recent years. Between 2023 and 2025, there were multiple Department of Building complaints regarding failure to maintain building conditions, with three active violations noted in 2023 specifically citing hazardous deterioration including missing bricks, cracks, and spalling on all building exposures.
The building has also faced recurring issues with rodent infestations, with inspections from 2024-2025 consistently revealing rat activity, particularly between January 2024 and October 2024. Recent health department complaints in late 2024 documented construction-related indoor air quality issues. The building has a history of bedbug-related violations, with the most recent annual report (2024-2025) indicating one infested dwelling unit that was subsequently eradicated.
A significant portion of the building's recent history has involved scaffolding and sidewalk shed-related issues, including violations in 2024 regarding inadequate support and safety concerns. The property has also experienced elevator service issues, with a complaint in 2025 regarding single-device service, and multiple failure-to-maintain violations citing various building deficiencies. Notable historic violations from 2017 remain open, specifically concerning multiple maintenance issues in Apartment 3B, including defective plaster surfaces and fire egress concerns. The building's documented history suggests ongoing challenges with maintenance compliance and pest control, with particular attention needed to the recurring issues with building envelope deterioration and rodent presence.
