292 West 92nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10025

292 West 92nd Street is a 6-story, 24-unit old law tenement building constructed in 1899, currently owned by Zacarias Vazquez. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple emergency complaints filed between 2024 and 2025, including three separate incidents in January 2025 alone. These heating system problems appear to be an ongoing concern, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building.

The building has also faced several safety and maintenance challenges, most notably regarding its door and window systems in mid-2024, which resulted in multiple violations, particularly concerning the door frame issues in apartment 5A. The property has undergone various inspections and been required to address several violations, including fire escape safety concerns in October 2023 and building entrance maintenance issues such as missing handrails identified in October 2023, which were subsequently resolved. The building's more recent history includes complaints about building shaking and structural stability in early 2025, though inspections found no violations at that time.

The elevator system experienced documented issues in 2020, with violations related to improper fuses and misaligned brakes, while the building also faced a significant violation in 2020 regarding excessive construction debris. However, the building has maintained a clean record regarding pest control, with no reported bedbug infestations across multiple annual filings since at least 2019, and the most recent rodent inspection in January 2025 passed successfully. While the property has had its share of maintenance challenges, particularly regarding heating systems and various safety concerns, it has generally addressed violations when identified, as evidenced by the "resolved" status of many previous violations. The building's age and history of recurring heating issues suggest ongoing maintenance challenges, though the absence of recent bedbug complaints and generally passing rodent inspections indicate relatively stable pest management conditions.
