588 West End Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10024

588 West End Avenue is a 15-story, 67-unit residential building constructed in 1922, currently owned by Ted Cunningham and classified as a New Law Tenement. The building has experienced various maintenance and regulatory events over recent years, with the most significant recent issue being a roofing complaint in March 2024 that was investigated by HPD but resulted in no violations. A bedbug infestation was reported in 2024, though it was subsequently eradicated, marking the first pest issue in recent records.

The building underwent multiple construction-related incidents between 2018-2022, including two specific construction safety violations in 2019 related to scaffold installation and work being performed contrary to approved documents, which resulted in a penalty of $620. In 2022, a Partial Stop Work Order was issued related to chimney replacement work. The building has maintained regular inspections for rodent control, passing all inspections from 2016 to 2024, with one exception in 2017 when bait was applied.

HBO violations have been relatively minimal, with one historical violation from 1999 involving vermin in a specific unit (1B) that has since been marked as resolved. The building's prior issues appear to have been systematically addressed, with most recent complaints being resolved without significant penalties or ongoing concerns. Apart from the recent bedbug incident and roofing complaint, there have been no other major resident-impacting issues in recent years, and the building has consistently submitted required documentation, including a benchmarking report of energy use in 2022.
