124 West 60th Street, Manhattan, NY 10023

124 West 60th Street is a 51-story, 498-unit residential building constructed in 1986, currently owned by Richard Mason. The building has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past five years, with particular concerns about heating, water supply, and elevator systems. Most notably, there were emergency complaints about heat and hot water issues in both 2024 and 2021, with similar problems reported in earlier years.

The building has also faced water supply and plumbing issues, including a slow water leak complaint in 2023, and unsanitary conditions related to garbage storage in 2024. The elevator system has been a recurring concern, with multiple complaints and violations recorded between 2018 and 2024, including a recent ECB violation in December 2024 for being out of service, which incurred a penalty of $312. The property has undergone various inspections and permit activities, with several permits issued for work between 2018 and 2020, primarily related to elevator and plumbing systems.

Bedbug reports show one infested unit in 2024, though it was noted as eradicated. The building has maintained passing scores on most rodent inspections, with only two failures noted (in 2020 and late 2024). The Department of Buildings has recorded multiple violations over the years, including issues with energy efficiency compliance in 2021-2022, though many of these violations were ultimately dismissed or resolved. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic services like heating and hot water, though most complaints have been closed with no violations found upon inspection, indicating that while issues occur, they are often addressed promptly within legal compliance parameters.
