161 West 95th Street, Manhattan, NY 10025
161 West 95th Street is a 3-story, 7-unit residential building located in Manhattan's Upper West Side, built in 1910 and currently owned by Reda Bouzid. The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly in 2024, when multiple violations were documented by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) for problems including rodent infestations, unsanitary conditions, safety hazards related to smoke detectors, and water leaks.
These inspections, conducted primarily in August and September 2024, resulted in both Class A (illegal conversion) and Class B violations that are currently open or recently closed, including issues with carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, water leaks, and an alleged illegal duplex conversion involving a pierced floor with stairs to the cellar. The building has a notable history of rodent activity, with inspections in late 2024 (October and November) confirming rat presence, following previous inspections in 2023 that passed. Water-related issues have been recurrent, with complaints about heavy flow and damp spots being documented through both 311 service requests and housing maintenance complaints.
The property has maintained an active bedbug reporting history, though records from 2021-2025 show zero cases of infestation or re-infestation. Historical records indicate some past issues with heating and hot water (2022) and a slow water leak (2018), but the most pressing concerns appear to be the current rodent issues and the recent cluster of violations in 2024. Notably, there have been two recent illegal conversion complaints (October 2023 and September 2024) regarding the unauthorized use of basement space as a duplex, though inspectors reportedly were unable to gain access during their inspection attempts.
