57 West 90th Street, Manhattan, NY 10024

The five-story, ten-unit building at 57 West 90th Street, owned by Frank Magnone, is a HEADING class A property constructed in 1886 and has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there was a heat and hot water emergency reported in January 2024, though conditions were reportedly restored within a day. The building currently has an open Class A violation from April 2024 regarding the failure to file the annual bedbug report, which was previously cited as a violation in February 2022.

While the bedbug reporting from 2019 through 2023 shows zero infested dwelling units, the building has a documented history of rodent issues, with multiple inspections showing rat activity between 2022 and 2024. Most recently, an initial rodent inspection in September 2024 revealed rat activity, though a subsequent compliance inspection in November 2024 passed. The property has demonstrated some responsiveness to pest control matters, as evidenced by the regular bedbug reporting and various rodent inspections, but the recurring nature of these issues suggests ongoing challenges with pest management.

The building's maintenance history shows a mix of compliance and violation notices, with the most recent being the unresolved bedbug reporting requirement from April 2024. The heat and hot water issue in early 2024 represents a concerning disruption to basic services, though it appears to have been promptly addressed. The property has passed several rodent inspections, indicating some level of remediation efforts, but the pattern of rat activity observed in 2022 and 2024 suggests this remains an ongoing concern. The building's age and history as a converted Class A property may contribute to these maintenance challenges, though the regularity of inspections and reporting requirements being addressed is notable.
