136 West 42nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10036
136 West 42nd Street, a 37-story class B building constructed in 2012 and owned by Diamondrock Time Square Tenant LLC, has faced several recurring maintenance and compliance issues, particularly concerning its elevator systems and regulatory requirements. Most notably, there have been ongoing concerns about elevator functionality, with multiple complaints in 2024-2025 regarding "Multiple Devices on Property" and a December 2024 ECB violation for an out-of-service elevator device. The building has also required several Local Law 188/17 compliance inspections in 2024, suggesting ongoing work requiring monitoring for safety compliance.
While there were some bedbug reporting compliance issues between 2021-2024, recent reports (December 2024) indicate no infested units, with all previously affected units (282) reported as eradicated. The building has experienced various enforcement actions and violations since its construction, including two "Work Without a Permit" violations in 2024, one of which carries a significant $2,530 penalty. Additionally, there are two active DOB violations from 2024 related to failure to display energy efficiency scores and to certify correction of immediately hazardous violations.
Between 2010 and 2014, the building's rodent inspections showed some initial issues with rat activity in 2011, but subsequent inspections in 2012 and 2014 passed without concerns. Six bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024 showed periods of infestation, though recent filings indicate successful eradication with zero infested units. The building has obtained multiple permits in 2024 for various works, though specific details of the work are not provided in the summary.
