AI summary · updated June 2026

The 16-story New Law tenement building at 313 West 86th Street, owned by Melissa Cafiero and built in 1927, has experienced several notable events regarding building maintenance and resident services over recent years. Most recently, in December 2022, there was a heat and hot water emergency complaint that was resolved within four days, though this incident highlights potential concerns with building systems. The building has consistently passed annual rodent inspections from 2017 through 2025, demonstrating effective pest management. Between 2022 and 2024, the building received Housing Maintenance Code violations related to the filing of annual bedbug reports, though all violations were subsequently closed. In 2018, multiple safety-related violations were recorded, including requirements for gas leak procedures, posting of superintendent information, and smoke detector requirements, all of which were certified as corrected.

The building underwent multiple tenant safety inspections in 2021, with no violations found in any of the four inspections conducted between April and June, though one elevator-related violation was recorded in January 2021. The property has maintained a clean bedbug record from 2019 to present, with all recent filings showing zero infested or re-infested units. Building permits from 2018-2021 indicate regular maintenance operations, with multiple work permits issued for various repairs and improvements. The property has demonstrated compliance with New York City's housing maintenance requirements, though the heat/hot water incident and periodic violations regarding bedbug reporting suggest some ongoing maintenance challenges.
