333 West 86th Street, Manhattan, NY 10024
333 West 86th Street is a 21-story residential building owned by Paul Karaqi, constructed in 1927 in the Upper West Side neighborhood. The building has experienced persistent heating and hot water issues throughout 2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed between January and March 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. These problems have resulted in violations being issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), with one violation still remaining open as of April 2024 regarding hot water issues in apartment 2002 on the 20th floor.
The building has also faced various maintenance challenges, including plumbing issues (bathtub/shower problems), unsanitary conditions (pest control), and door/window maintenance concerns between late 2024 and early 2025. Recent inspections and complaints have revealed additional infrastructure concerns, including cracked exterior walls and windows. Two Environmental Control Board violations from 2024 cite problems with the building's exterior walls, including cracked terra-cotta on the south elevation near the 13th/14th floors, and a cracked window pane on the 6th floor. The building's elevator systems have generated multiple complaints in 2023, though inspections generally found no violations at the time of inspection.
Facade stability concerns were notably significant in 2021, with a violation citing dangerous bulging and vertical cracking of masonry brick facade between the 8th and 12th floors. While the building has passed several rodent inspections between 2019 and 2025, there have been multiple instances of failed inspections for other reasons. The property management has addressed some maintenance issues promptly, as evidenced by various completed violations and permits, though several active violations regarding immediate hazards and maintenance compliance remain open. The building has maintained a bedbug-free record in recent years, with zero reported cases between 2021 and 2024.
