341 West 88th Street, Manhattan, NY 10024

341 West 88th Street is a four-story, 10-unit residential building located in Manhattan's Upper West Side and owned by Jamie Grima. Built in 1894, this formerly converted Class A building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, particularly evident in 2020 when multiple complaints were filed by residents reporting loss of these essential services throughout the building.

While these complaints were eventually resolved, the building has continued to face maintenance challenges, including recent reports in February 2024 of unsanitary conditions related to mold and pests, which were inspected by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) though no violations were issued. The building has a troubling pattern of boiler-related violations, with the most recent active violations recorded in 2023 citing exposed electrical wiring, holes in walls and ceilings, and temperature regulation issues. These violations carry significant financial penalties totaling $6,875.00.

Additional maintenance issues were noted in 2022 concerning apartment 1A, including mold, defective caulking, broken plaster surfaces, and missing safety features such as smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. Despite these challenges, the building has passed recent rodent inspections (2025, 2024, 2023, 2022) and has maintained a record of zero bedbug infestations in the last four reporting periods (2024-2025, 2023-2024, 2022-2023, 2020-2021). The property has also adhered to the annual bedbug reporting requirement, with no reported cases of infestation or reinfestation.
