301 West 53rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10019
301 West 53rd Street is a 26-story, 247-unit residential building constructed in 1979 and currently governed by the 301 West 53rd Street Condominium association. The building has experienced several recurring issues over the past few years, with the most recent heat and hot water problems reported in November 2023 affecting the entire building, though inspectors were unable to access units for verification.
Similar heating issues have been documented in October 2022, while other maintenance concerns have included floor issues (January 2023), plumbing problems (November 2021), and a mold remediation case (November 2021). The building's infrastructure has faced various challenges, as evidenced by multiple Department of Buildings violations and Environmental Control Board citations, including concerns about the parking structure's maintenance and concrete spalling (January 2024) with a $12,500 penalty, and complications regarding construction safety compliance in 2025.
A notable operational issue occurred in 2020 when the elevator system was cited for lacking proper door lock monitoring. However, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all recent reports showing zero infested units since 2019, and successful rodent control inspections passed consistently since 2012. While the building has faced various maintenance challenges, most have been addressed through the appropriate agencies, with some violations being dismissed or resolved over time, including previously documented elevator system violations from 2020 that were resolved by 2022.
