465 West End Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10024

The 13-story New Law Tenement building at 465 West End Avenue, owned by Lauren Svenningsen, has been undergoing regular maintenance and inspections since its construction in 1911. The property has shown consistent attention to pest control in recent years, with rodent inspections in 2024 (passed), 2023 (passed), and 2022 (passed), following a notable rat sighting in 2020 that resulted in violations. The building experienced several maintenance issues between 2020-2021, including a problematic gas range in the penthouse (Class C violation), defective self-closing doors in the 10th floor entrance, and a missing skylight screen at the bulkhead.

A significant environmental control board violation was issued in 2021 for failing to maintain exterior building walls, with documented cracks and spalling observed on the east elevation, for which a penalty of $1,250 was imposed. Historical documentation shows regular permit activity, with multiple work permits issued between 2020-2022 for various maintenance activities. The building's maintenance record shows general compliance with housing maintenance codes, as most violations were promptly addressed and certified closed, including several equipment repairs and replacements.

Notably, the building has maintained a clean bedbug record since 2018, with no reported infestations in any of the eight consecutive annual reports. Inspections of the building's systems, including safety features such as fire escapes and general maintenance, have been regular, with most passing inspections. The property's documented service requests and violations suggest proactive management, particularly in response to pest control issues, though there were some instances of violations requiring follow-up inspections between 2019-2021. The most recent building records through 2025 indicate ongoing compliance with city regulations and regular maintenance requirements.
