114 West 76th Street, Manhattan, NY 10023

This four-story, eight-unit building at 114 West 76th Street in the Upper West Side, owned by Jerry Edelman, has been experiencing recurring maintenance issues over the past several years. The most pressing current concern is a recent mold problem reported in September 2024, which was investigated by HPD with no violations found. There has been a notable pattern of heat and hot water issues throughout the building, with multiple complaints filed between 2022 and 2024, including several concerning the entire building in February 2024, and violations documented in apartments 3R and 4F during November 2022.

The building also faced a power outage in November 2022, and a cooking gas violation in apartment 4F during the same month. The property has open violations as of 2025, including inadequate lighting in the 4th-story public hall and a potentially unaddressed roof leak issue affecting apartment 4F, both from 2022. Additionally, there is an active DOB violation from April 2023 regarding the failure to file the 2022 external low-pressure inspection.

On a positive note, the building has maintained consistent compliance with rodent inspections, passing all inspections from 2015 through 2024. The building's bedbug reports from 2020 through 2023 show no infestations, with all units listed as either infested (0), eradicated (0), or re-infested (0) in each reporting period. While recent inspections have addressed individual complaints, the recurring nature of the heat/hot water problems and the recent mold issue suggest ongoing maintenance challenges.
