119 East 29th Street, Manhattan, NY 10016
119 East 29th Street, an 8-story building constructed in 1930 and currently owned by Andrew Lauer, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there have been recurring problems with heating and plumbing systems, including emergency heat/hot water complaints in May 2024 and water supply issues in November 2024, both of which HPD was unable to properly investigate due to access issues. The building's elevator system has also been a persistent concern, with multiple complaints about single device operation and lack of alternate service between 2019 and 2023, leading to several Oath Violations.
The building has faced various safety and maintenance challenges, particularly regarding its facade. In 2022, multiple violations were issued concerning the building's exterior, including issues with cracked and broken stone sections above the main entrance, and failures to maintain proper safety measures for an allegedly unsafe facade. These violations resulted in several penalties, though many were ultimately dismissed.
The property's Bedbug Reporting system has shown consistent compliance since 2021, with no reported infestations in any of the annual filings. Both rodent inspections conducted in 2020 and earlier years (2010-2011) passed without any violations. The most recent environmental control board violations from 2023-2024 indicate ongoing concerns with facade maintenance and elevator operation, with penalties totaling $2,500 still active as of 2024.
