128 West 95th Street, Manhattan, NY 10025

The five-story, two-family house at 128 West 95th Street in the Upper West Side, built in 1900 and currently owned by Seymour Sub, has experienced several concerning issues over recent years, particularly between 2018-2019. The most significant recurrent problem has been related to standing water, with multiple complaints filed with the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) between July 2018 and November 2019, suggesting persistent water management issues within the building's infrastructure.

These standing water complaints were documented through at least seven separate incidents, with particular attention to a puddle on the roof in July 2019 that contributed to mosquito proliferation, as evidenced by a related complaint about "Large Number of Mosquitoes" that same month. The building has also faced some compliance concerns with the Department of Buildings, though inspections generally found no violations. A vacant, open, and unguarded building complaint in May 2019 resulted in an inspection that found no violations at that time.

More recently, in June 2020, there was a permit-related issue that warranted a stop-work order, though this was partially rescinded in July of that year. The most recent building-related incident on record was in April 2024, concerning potentially unsafe demolition activity, but this inspection also found no violations at the time. While the building's documented history shows multiple concerns, particularly during the 2018-2019 period related to water management and pest control, subsequent years have shown fewer documented issues, though the persistence of standing water problems during 2018-2019 warrants attention.
