75 Central Park West, Manhattan, NY 10023

75 Central Park West is a 16-story, 53-unit residential building constructed in 1929, currently owned by Ian Wallace. The building has experienced several significant issues over the past few years, with the most pressing concerns being related to elevator safety and energy compliance. Between 2020 and 2022, there were multiple violations regarding elevator systems, including two specific violations for lacking door lock monitoring systems which were eventually resolved with $2,500 in penalties.

More recently, from 2022 to 2025, the building has faced ongoing challenges with energy reporting compliance, having received multiple violations for failing to file required benchmarking reports, including active violations as recent as 2023-2024. The building underwent facade work in 2020-2022 that generated several complaints and violations, including a Stop Work Order and issues with scaffolding safety, which were subsequently resolved. Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs in recent years, with all annual reports from 2019 to 2024 showing zero infested or eradicated units.

Additionally, the building has consistently passed rodent inspections between 2014 and 2025, indicating effective pest control measures. While there have been various other violations and complaints, including construction safety compliance issues and a gas utility referral in 2019, most have been resolved through proper channels. The building has also demonstrated responsiveness to regulatory requirements by eventually filing necessary reports, as evidenced by the confirmation of benchmarking report submission in July 2024, though it initially resulted in violation notices.
