211 West 58th Street, Manhattan, NY 10019

The five-story, 16-unit residential building at 211 West 58th Street, owned by 232 Realty 3 Corp and constructed in 1920, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues in recent years. The building has a recurring pattern of bedbug report violations, with open Class A violations documented annually from 2021 through 2024, indicating non-compliance with Housing Maintenance Code requirements to file annual bedbug reports. More critically, the property has multiple active violations related to boiler safety and building maintenance.

As of December 2024, there is an active Environmental Control Board violation with a $625 penalty for failing to file required annual boiler inspection reports, and the building has outstanding Department of Buildings (DOB) violations for failing to file low-pressure boiler inspections for 2020-2023. In 2022, an inspection revealed structural concerns with damaged, missing, and spalling brickwork, for which the building received a $1,250 penalty. The building's maintenance record shows a mix of rodent inspection results, with the most recent inspection in June 2024 passing compliance standards, following an initial failure in May 2024.

Historical records indicate generally successful rodent control efforts from 2010 to 2014, with all inspections passing during that period. In 2022, the building was also cited for failing to provide approximately 25 linear feet of overhead pedestrian protection along West 58th Street. The pattern of violations suggests ongoing challenges with both reactive maintenance (as indicated by the bedbug report violations) and preventive maintenance (as shown by the boiler inspection failures), though recent rodent inspections show some improvement in pest management. The building's violation history demonstrates a need for improved maintenance compliance across various systems and reporting requirements.
