133 West 82nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10024

133 West 82nd Street is a 4-story, 6-unit building located in Manhattan's Upper West Side, built in 1882 and currently owned by Warren Ashworth. The building has experienced several significant issues over the past decade, with the most critical occurring in 2018 when multiple serious safety violations were documented, including lack of a required fire-alarm system, missing sprinkler systems, and inadequate means of egress, all related to unauthorized transient use. These violations, which also included unauthorized construction work and improper occupancy of permanent dwelling units, resulted in substantial penalties totaling $10,250.

In 2020, there was a notable incident involving building stability concerns, followed by violations related to facade maintenance including missing decorative stones and exposed bricks, which led to additional penalties. Recent records indicate improvements in building management, particularly regarding pest control and overall maintenance. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs since 2020, with all subsequent annual reports (most recently filed in March 2024) showing zero infested units.

Rodent inspections have consistently passed since 2015, with the most recent inspection in August 2024 continuing this trend. The property has also complied with most recent housing maintenance code requirements, filing annual bedbug reports as required. While there was an unresolved ECB violation in 2020 regarding failure to certify correction of an immediately hazardous condition, this was subsequently dismissed in December 2020 due to timely submission of correction documentation. Recent permit records show active maintenance and improvement work being conducted under proper authorization, with multiple permits issued in February 2019 for electrical and plumbing work.
