635 West 42nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10036
The Atelier Condominium at 635 West 42nd Street is a 46-story, 400-unit residential building constructed in 2005, currently owned by Atelier Condominium. The building has experienced recurring maintenance challenges, particularly regarding water-related issues, with multiple complaints about leaks between 2022 and 2024, including one classified as "heavy flow" in September 2022 and a "slow leak" in May 2023. Recent events of concern include active rodent activity in 2025, with inspections in May, June, and July 2025 showing inconsistent results, though some past rodent inspections from 2024 and earlier had passed.
In 2023, the building received multiple housing maintenance code violations related to water damage and ceiling conditions in the PHD apartment, and more recently, in April 2024, there was an active ECB violation regarding the failure to submit required external low-pressure inspection reports. The building's maintenance history reveals periodic issues with heat and hot water systems, evidenced by complaints in 2025 and earlier years, though some were investigated and found not to violate housing laws. Additional historical concerns include mold issues in 2022, affecting multiple apartments (notably 3B), and various window and door maintenance issues.
The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with no reported infestations in recent years (latest filings show 0 infested units). While there have been several complaints regarding illegal hotel usage and construction work without permits in 2023-2024, most were determined to be unsubstantiated or not warranting violations upon inspection. The building also faces ongoing requirements for external pressure inspections, with violations noted for failure to file reports in 2023-2024, indicating potential maintenance oversight in this critical safety area.
