137 West 67th Street, Manhattan, NY 10023

137 West 67th Street is a 5-story, 10-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1915 and currently owned by Alan Manocherian. The building has experienced recurring heating system issues, with multiple complaints about inadequate heat affecting the entire building reported in late 2023 and most recently in February 2025, which prompted investigations by both HPD and DOHMH.

In August 2023, significant housing maintenance violations were documented in apartment 2W, including unsanitary conditions related to a mouse infestation (currently open), water leak issues, defective plaster surfaces, and problems with safety equipment such as smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. The building's maintenance record shows regular rodent inspection compliance, having passed all inspections from 2015 through 2025. The property has undergone various inspections and received multiple violation notices over the years, particularly related to heating systems and unsanitary conditions.

Notable issues include a lack of heat and hot water problems reported in October 2022, which were reportedly resolved during the inspection. While the building has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections, it has experienced periodic problems with heat and sanitation, including a documented pest issue in August 2023. The building’s management has responded to several violations, as evidenced by the certification of repairs in September 2023, though some issues, like the ongoing pest control concerns in apartment 2W, remain unresolved as of the latest inspection dates.
