150 West 74th Street, Manhattan, NY 10023

The 30-unit, 4-story residential building at 150 West 74th Street, owned by Jessica Kesselman, has experienced recurring heating system issues, with two separate heat/hot water complaints logged in November 2024 (one affecting the entire building and one specific to an apartment), marking the third such incident since 2021. The building has also faced rodent challenges, with the most recent inspections in 2024 showing periods of rat activity in August and June, though subsequent inspections passed.

A notable gas safety incident occurred in 1999 (regarding kitchen gas supply in apartment C), and there were several building code violations documented in 2008, including issues with fire stair doors, janitorial service requirements, and postings of superintendent contact information, though these were eventually certified as corrected in 2019. The property has maintained a good track record for bedbug management, with no reported infestations in the past six reporting periods (2019-2025).

A violation was recorded in 2019 concerning the failure to file the 2017 boiler inspection report, which was dismissed with a $1,000 penalty paid. While the building has experienced periodic maintenance issues, including the recent heating problems, it has generally shown compliance with health and safety inspections, though recent rodent activity suggests ongoing pest management challenges. The building's age (built in 1963) and history of heating system complaints suggest this infrastructure element may require continued attention, while its consistent bedbug management record indicates effective pest control measures in that regard.
