124 West 86th Street, Manhattan, NY 10024
The four-story, 10-unit building at 124 West 86th Street in the Upper West Side, owned by Joseph Franco and built in 1887, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns involving sanitation and rodent control. Between 2024 and 2025, there were multiple complaints regarding garbage and recycling storage conditions, with the most recent violations cited in August 2024 related to improper waste receptacles. The building has also faced persistent rodent challenges, with documented rat activity between December 2023 and August 2024, though the most recent inspection from August 2024 passed.
Historical data shows a pattern of rodent-related issues, with multiple complaints in 2024 alone. Other notable maintenance matters include unresolved lead paint compliance issues affecting apartments 2, 5, 6, and 7 as of April 2022, along with a broken baluster at public hall stairs that was documented but not promptly addressed. The building's heat and hot water system received attention in 2019 when tenants reported issues, though these were reportedly resolved quickly.
On a positive note, the building has maintained an effective bedbug management program, with records from 2021-2025 showing zero infestations or related activity. While the property has had periodic violations and maintenance issues, recent inspections show some improvement in rodent control, with the most recent inspections passing. The owner has generally responded to complaints and violations, though some issues, particularly regarding lead paint compliance, remain unresolved.
