601 West 41st Street, Manhattan, NY 10036

601 West 41st Street is a 10-story residential building in Hell's Kitchen, containing 83 units and constructed in 2005, currently owned by Janelle Allende. The building has experienced persistent heating and plumbing issues, particularly concerning radiator problems. Most notably, in January 2025, there are open emergency complaints regarding both heating/hot water and radiator issues that remain unresolved.

Throughout 2024, there were multiple heating/hot water complaints, with several requiring HPD inspections, though most were closed without finding violations. The building has a documented history of radiator problems, with similar complaints in 2022 and 2021, some of which HPD was unable to inspect due to access issues. The property has complied with rodent inspections, passing all required evaluations since 2017, with the most recent inspection in October 2024 confirming compliance.

However, there have been concerning episodes of pest management, including periods of bedbug infestations: four units reported infested in 2020-2021, and more recently one unit in 2022-2023, though no current infestations were reported in the latest 2023-2024 cycle. The building's maintenance record shows multiple "A" class violations for failing to file annual bedbug reports between 2018-2022, though these were subsequently closed. Additionally, there is an outstanding violation regarding the failure to display energy efficiency scores and grades, issued in December 2021, which remains active. The property manager has received multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions, including reports of mold in 2023, though most of these were closed without violations being found.
