286 West End Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10023
The 10-unit, 4-story residential building at 286 West End Avenue in the Upper West Side, owned by John Brusco and constructed in 1889, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there has been an ongoing rodent control challenge, with multiple rat sighting complaints and inspections in 2024 showing alternating patterns of rat activity and compliance inspections, with the most recent inspections in October 2024 passing compliance.
The building has also faced water-related problems, with emergency water leak complaints in June 2024 and previously in October 2023, though neither resulted in violations. The property has documented violations related to door safety, specifically for preventing doors from self-closing, which were addressed and certified as corrected in July 2024.
The building has a history of sanitary concerns, including pest-related violations in May 2024 affecting a specific apartment (designated as Apartment B), though follow-up inspections showed no violations. While the building has undergone several repairs and maintenance actions as indicated by multiple work permits issued between 2018-2020, including exterior work, the persistent nature of rodent sightings and water-related issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. However, it's worth noting that the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in the past several years, as evidenced by annual bedbug reports showing zero infested units since 2019.
