103 West 80th Street, Manhattan, NY 10024

The 18-unit, 6-story Old Law Tenement at 103 West 80th Street, built in 1891 and currently owned by Anthony Magnone, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past two years, most notably regarding heat and hot water systems. Since 2023, there have been multiple heat/hot water complaints, with the most recent occurring in January 2025, for which violations were issued. The building has also undergone various inspections in 2023 and 2024 that revealed multiple issues requiring attention, including problems with plumbing fixtures (toilets, tubs/showers, and radiators), flooring, doors, and an appliance (refrigerator).

An inspection in April 2024 revealed several violations in apartment 2E, including issues with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, window mechanisms, and heating systems, though most of these violations were subsequently certified as corrected by April 2024. The building's maintenance history shows attempts to address various building systems, though some issues persist. In 2024, violations were issued regarding self-closing doors in public areas, including the hopper chute door, recycle room door, and boiler room.

The property has a history of rodent issues, with multiple inspections showing "Rat Activity" between 2022-2023, though it passed recent inspections in 2024 and 2025. While no bedbug infestations have been reported in recent years (with all filings showing zero infested units), the building's history of heat and hot water complaints suggests ongoing challenges with building systems maintenance. The property has also had three complaints regarding water retention/ drainage issues between 2021-2023, though inspections found no violations at the time.
