144 West 86th Street, Manhattan, NY 10024
The 17-story, 67-unit residential building at 144 West 86th Street, owned by Ardit Hysaj, has experienced notable challenges with rodent infestations in early 2025, with multiple complaints about rat sightings between January and April 2025. The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene has responded by applying bait throughout the property from January through April 2025, though previous inspections in 2024 had passed without violation.
The building, a New Law Tenement constructed in 1929, also faced a heat/hot water complaint in January 2025 that required follow-up inspection by HPD, which was unable to complete its evaluation. The property has a history of elevator-related violations documented between 2019-2022, though these were ultimately dismissed or resolved. In 2023, an annual bedbug report violation was issued but has since been rectified, and more recent filings (2022-2024) show no evidence of bedbug infestations, with zero units reported as infested or reinfested.
The building's energy efficiency compliance was addressed in 2022 with a violation that was dismissed in 2023. Regular maintenance and inspections appear to be ongoing, with multiple permits issued between 2018-2019 for various maintenance work, suggesting active management of building systems. The recent rodent issues, while being addressed through multiple inspections and bait applications, represent the most significant current concern regarding building conditions and resident experience.
