313 West 75th Street, Manhattan, NY 10023

The five-story, 9-unit building at 313 West 75th Street, owned by Barry Lipsitz, is a former Class B building that was converted to Class A status. Built in 1893 in Manhattan's Upper West Side, this building has experienced several notable incidents related to resident comfort and safety. Most recently, in December 2024, there were heat and hot water complaints in an apartment that required HPD intervention to verify resolution.

The building has faced consistent pressure to comply with bedbug reporting requirements, receiving annual violations from 2021 through 2024 for failing to file the required reports, though these violations were ultimately closed. Regular inspections from 2021 to 2025 have shown the building maintained a bedbug-free status, with all reports indicating zero infested units or re-infestations. The building's rodent management record shows generally good compliance, with the most recent inspections in 2023 and 2024 passing, though there was one instance of rat activity noted in April 2022.

The property has undergone various inspections and maintenance checks, with violations typically being addressed and closed promptly. The historical data suggests the building has maintained basic health and safety standards, though the heat complaint in late 2024 indicates occasional issues with building systems that require attention. The consistent filing of bedbug reports showing no infestations, despite earlier violations, suggests improved compliance with housing maintenance codes in recent years.
