4 West 83rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10024

The four-story, six-unit building at 4 West 83rd Street, owned by Pan Wang, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, there are unresolved construction lead dust complaints from April 2023 in the common areas, and a heat/hot water emergency affecting the entire building was reported and addressed in March 2024.

The building has also faced multiple violations regarding building maintenance and safety, including three separate ECB violations in 2020 related to facade disrepair (two were valued at $6,250 and $1,280 respectively), and a more recent violation in 2023 concerning unauthorized electrical work in basement apartments with a $2,500 penalty. Additionally, there are current active violations on record from January 2024. The property has maintained an apparently successful bedbug management program, with no reported infestations or eradications in recent years, and consistent compliance with annual reporting requirements since 2020.

However, there have been recent rodent activity issues, with inspections in September 2024 showing rat activity, following similar findings in September 2023. The building's history includes various safety and maintenance inspections with mixed results, though most emergency complaints have either been resolved or are currently in progress. The building's regulatory history suggests ongoing challenges with both routine maintenance and occasional significant violations, with a particular pattern of heat and construction-related issues in recent years.
