224 West 49th Street, Manhattan, NY 10019

The 16-story building at 224 West 49th Street, owned by Adler Family II LLC, has been in operation since 1927 and currently has multiple active violations and recent complaints that warrant attention. Most notably, there is an active hazardous facade (LL11/98) unsafe notification from 2025 and multiple open violations related to the failure to file required annual bedbug reports between 2021 and 2024.

The building's heating system has had documented issues, with a heat/hot water complaint in November 2020 that was classified as an emergency, and a boiler-related complaint in June 2021 that was marked as a defective/inoperative issue, though this was eventually resolved through an Oath violation. The Department of Buildings has also issued multiple active violations in 2023 and 2024 for failure to submit required inspection reports, including an estimated $6,250 penalty for not submitting an acceptable Cycle 9B report of critical examination for the exterior wall and appurtenances. The building's maintenance history shows some attempts at compliance with various regulations, with permits issued in early 2019 for general construction work.

While the building passed several rodent inspections between 2010 and 2014, the bedbug reporting history from 2018-2019 shows no recorded infestations during that period, though there have been multiple open violations related to bedbug report filings in subsequent years. The property has had some interaction with the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene regarding a food establishment grading issue in late 2018, which resulted in official written notification to the owner about potential violations. The building's current status suggests ongoing concerns with both building safety and maintenance compliance, particularly regarding heating infrastructure and facade safety requirements.
