42 West 85th Street, Manhattan, NY 10024

The 4-story, 10-unit building at 42 West 85th Street in the Upper West Side, owned by Segundo More, was constructed in 1887 and is classified as a previously converted Class A building. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and safety inspections over the past decade, with particular attention to safety compliance in February 2018 when multiple violations were noted regarding safety notice requirements in the first story public hall. These included the need to post carbon monoxide detector requirements, gas leak procedures, and to properly display the heating system keyholder information and certificate of inspection visits.

While most of these violations were subsequently closed by February 2018, one Class C violation regarding the heating system keyholder notice remained open through the most recent available data. The building has experienced periodic pest issues, with a notable cluster of bedbug infestations between 2017 and 2021, peaking with four infested units reported in late 2020. However, there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the past three reporting periods (2022-2024), suggesting successful eradication efforts.

The property has maintained consistent rodent inspection compliance, with all inspections from 2014 through 2024 passing, including the most recent September 2024 inspection. A single rat sighting complaint was recorded in December 2021, but the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene was unable to access the property for inspection. The building's overall maintenance record shows a pattern of addressing violations and maintaining pest control measures, with particular attention to safety compliance since the 2018 violations were noted.
