319 West 76th Street, Manhattan, NY 10023

319 West 76th Street is a 4-story, 18-unit residential building in the Upper West Side, constructed in 1891 and currently classified as a HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS B property. The building has experienced several maintenance and habitability issues in recent months, particularly in 2023, with multiple complaints and violations recorded between August and September 2023. Notable concerns during this period included pest infestations (with several complaints regarding pests), mold issues, plumbing problems in the bathtub/shower, and issues related to doors and windows.

The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) conducted inspections for these complaints but did not issue any violations, though one specific housing maintenance code violation was recorded for a broken bathtub drain stopper in Basement Apartment 1B, which was certified as corrected by December 2023. Other important maintenance history includes the building's compliance with rodent inspections, passing all inspections from 2014 through 2024, which suggests effective pest management regarding rodents. The building's bedbug reporting history from 2019 through 2024 shows no recorded infestations, with all reporting periods indicating zero infested or eradicated units.

A Department of Buildings violation was recorded and dismissed in September 2023, related to the failure to file a 2020 external low-pressure inspection. The most recent 311 service requests show recurring issues with unsanitary conditions, particularly regarding pests, though many of these complaints were closed without formal violations being issued. The building's maintenance record indicates ongoing challenges with maintaining unit conditions, particularly regarding plumbing and pest control, though these issues appear to be addressed through standard complaint resolution processes.
