66 West 77th Street, Manhattan, NY 10024

66 West 77th Street is a 7-story, 36-unit residential building constructed in 1895 and currently owned by Grunberg 77 LLC. The property has experienced recurring pest management challenges in recent years, with multiple complaints filed between 2024-2025 regarding rodent issues and food establishment sanitation concerns, though most recent inspections show improved conditions with passed inspections in May 2025.

The building has undergone several significant maintenance and compliance issues, including multiple plumbing and electrical problems reported in late 2023, with violations particularly noted in apartment 43 regarding window repairs, plaster surfaces, and various bathroom fixtures. The building's emergency and immediate emergency complaints from late 2023 included issues with plumbing fixtures, electrical systems, and window frames, though many of these were subsequently closed through inspections. There have been notable historical violations and compliance issues, including a 2020 illegal occupancy violation concerning apartment 41's conversion (resulting in a $625 penalty), and multiple façade maintenance violations in 2020 with penalties totaling $8750 relating to damaged mortar joints, cracked water tables, and window sill conditions.

A tenant safety inspection in December 2020 resulted in a stop work order, though this was fully rescinded in January 2021. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug-free status since 2019 according to official filings, and while there were multiple rodent-related complaints in 2024-2025, recent inspections indicate improved management of this issue. The property shows ongoing investment in maintenance and compliance through the issuance of multiple permits in 2023-2025, including work identified under job number 102213187.
