59 West 76th Street, Manhattan, NY 10023
59 West 76th Street is a 32-unit, 7-story Old Law Tenement building located in the Upper West Side, constructed in 1890 and currently owned by Walter Czolacz. The building has a recurring history of heat and hot water issues, with at least eight documented complaints between 2021 and 2025 regarding these services affecting the entire building. Most recently, a heat/hot water complaint was received in April 2025, though HPD was unable to gain access for inspection.
The building experienced several significant problems in July 2023, including multiple emergencies related to water supply issues, power outages, and an elevator service disruption. The elevator system has been a particular focus, with multiple violations and complaints recorded between 2020 and 2024, resulting in fines and requiring various repairs, including issues with fire service equipment and leveling discrepancies. The property has maintained a relatively clean record regarding pests and rodents, with bedbug reports showing zero infestations from 2018 to the present, and all rodent inspections between 2014 and 2024 passing successfully.
A building-wide heat and hot water complaint from December 2022 was resolved when tenants reported restoration of services. The Department of Buildings has recorded various violations and complaints, including an active violation from 2019 regarding building facade maintenance and multiple violations relating to elevator service and safety equipment. The most recent environmental inspection in 2024 showed no significant issues, though a sidewalk shed complaint from 2024 was investigated with no violations found. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic services, particularly heating and elevator reliability, while demonstrating proper pest control measures and compliance with most regulatory inspections.
