62 West 71st Street, Manhattan, NY 10023
The four-story, 17-unit building at 62 West 71st Street, owned by Michael Widlanski and constructed in 1892, has experienced recurring maintenance challenges, particularly during 2023-2025. The property, which is classified as "HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A," has shown persistent issues with sanitation and maintenance, including multiple complaints in September 2023 regarding pests, mold, ventilation, lighting, and door/windows problems. These led to violations for pest infestations and refrigerator issues in apartment B, while several other complaints were closed without violations.
Recent inspections in 2025 and 2024 showed rodent activity, though passed inspections were recorded. The building has multiple active Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations from 2020 regarding failure to comply with a 2018 commissioner's order and to file necessary certificates of correction, with penalties totaling $22,250. The property has a documented history of access issues, with several inspection attempts being unsuccessful between 2018-2022 for various complaints, including those about illegal conversions and gas utility concerns.
While the building has consistently filed bedbug reports from 2020-2024 showing no infestations, other maintenance issues have persisted. Recent complaints as of 2025 include mouse sightings, though recent inspections showed no violations. The building's maintenance history shows a combination of resolved and ongoing issues, with particular concern around pest and sanitation matters, though the property has generally passed routine inspections, including recent rodent inspections in 2025. The most significant ongoing concern appears to be the active ECB violations from 2020 related to compliance failures, though the penalties have been marked as "balance due: 0.0."
