44 West 75th Street, Manhattan, NY 10023

The 10-unit, 4-story apartment building at 44 West 75th Street in the Upper West Side, owned by Ida Mollano, has been in operation since 1890 and has experienced several notable events over recent years. Most recently, in April 2024, the building received a Housing Maintenance Code violation related to missed annual bedbug reporting requirements, though this appears to be administrative as subsequent bedbug reports (December 2024 filing) indicated no infested or eradicated units.

The building has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections, with ten consecutive successful inspections between 2014 and 2024, demonstrating good pest control practices. There have been some concerning incidents recorded in the Department of Buildings database, including two complaints - an illegal conversion complaint in 2022 and a complaint about after-hours work in 2020.

The illegal conversion complaint was closed without resolution as the inspector was unable to gain access on two final attempts, while the after-hours work complaint was found to have no violations at the time of inspection. A series of construction permits for exterior work were issued in mid-2020, suggesting some building improvements were undertaken during that period. The building's bedbug reporting history prior to 2024 shows a consistent pattern with zero infested units reported in filings from 2019 through 2024, though the recent violation notice indicates potential gaps in administrative compliance with reporting requirements.
