166 West 83rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10024
The five-story, 19-unit tenement building at 166 West 83rd Street, owned by Zohar Yaish and constructed in 1900, has experienced several recurring maintenance and sanitation issues in recent years. Most notably, as of April 2025, there are two open complaints regarding unsanitary conditions related to garbage/recycling storage that remain unresolved.
The property has demonstrated persistent rodent challenges, with multiple bait applications recorded between 2024 and 2025, and rat activity documented in several inspections. A 2024 Department of Health and Mental Hygiene inspection also found violations related to rodent presence.
The building has a history of various maintenance concerns, including a 2020 incident involving mold issues in apartment 4D (now resolved), and separate violations in 2022 involving fire safety equipment such as a defective fire escape drop ladder and rust issues on the rear fire escape. While the building has shown consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2019, with no infestations reported, the property continues to face challenges with maintaining sanitary conditions, as evidenced by the recent unsanitary conditions complaints and the ongoing rodent management needs. The most recent inspection record from January 2025 shows bait was applied, indicating continued pest control efforts are necessary.
