137 West 86th Street, Manhattan, NY 10024
137 West 86th Street is a 14-unit, 4-story residential building constructed in 1889 and currently owned by Theresa Veltri. The property has experienced recurring issues with building systems and maintenance over recent years, with the most recent significant incident being a sanitation-related violation in early 2025 concerning garbage/recycling storage, which was officially documented by HPD.
The building has faced multiple heat and hot water complaints, with entire building outages reported in June 2024 and previous incidents in May 2019, though no violations were found in 2019 and HPD could not gain access during the 2024 inspection. Additional building concerns have included mold issues in 2023 (no violations found), rodent-related problems in 2022 (initial inspections showed rat activity, but subsequent inspections passed), and electrical wiring concerns in July 2024 where the inspector could not gain access for review. The building's maintenance record indicates some compliance issues with bedbug reporting requirements, as violations were issued in 2021, 2022, and 2023 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though subsequent filings from 2019 through 2024 show no reported infestations or required eradications.
Recent inspections have generally shown improvement, with passed inspections for rodent activity in 2023 and 2024, suggesting successful mitigation of previous pest problems. A permit for plumbing work was issued in November 2023, indicating ongoing maintenance and upgrades to building systems. While the building has experienced various maintenance challenges, recent records show some progress in addressing these issues, though the recurring nature of certain complaints suggests ongoing system monitoring will be necessary.
