505 West 43Rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10036
The Charlie West Condominium at 505 West 43rd Street is a 15-story, 131-unit Class A multiple dwelling built in 2017, currently managed by Charlie West Condominium. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues, most notably a recurring history of heat and hot water problems, with emergencies reported throughout 2021 affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. More recently, in 2024, there has been one complaint regarding unsanitary conditions (mold) that was inspected with no violations found, and a heat/hot water issue from October 2023 that was resolved following inspection. Currently, there are multiple open violations as of March 2024 related to building safety notices and documentation requirements, including missing notices for smoke detector requirements, carbon monoxide detecting device requirements, and emergency procedures in the public hall area.
The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all annual reports from 2019 to 2024 showing zero infested units. Rodent inspection conducted in October 2024 passed without issues. There were also two Work Without Permits Watch List Compliance inspections in 2023 and 2024 that resulted in no violations. The elevator systems received attention in 2021, with violations for expired brake tags and door restrictor issues that were subsequently resolved.
Historical complaints show occasional issues with safety and standards compliance during the initial construction period, including concerns about site conditions and after-hours work, though most were found to warrant no violations upon inspection. The building's construction period from 2018-2020 saw numerous permits issued for various systems and structure installations, including plumbing, electrical, and mechanical work. Three active DOB violations were issued in June 2023 for failure to file 2020 external low-pressure inspection results, and there were two ECB elevator-related violations from November 2021 regarding safety equipment that resulted in fines totaling $2,812, though these were resolved. Regular tenant safety inspections have been conducted, with the most recent in 2023 resulting in no violations being warranted.
