311 West 95th Street, Manhattan, NY 10025

The 32-unit, 7-story building at 311 West 95th Street, owned by Pablo Llorente and constructed in 1903, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, in late 2024 and early 2025, there were multiple complaints concerning water leaks, unsanitary conditions (including mold and pests), wall paint/plaster problems, and bathtub/shower plumbing issues, with many of these complaints remaining unresolved or only partially addressed during inspections. The building has also faced recurring heat and hot water system issues, including a building-wide heat problem reported in November 2024.

Inspection records from 2024 revealed multiple fire door violations on various floors, including problems with self-closing mechanisms and defective doors in public areas and individual apartments, particularly affecting floors 1, 5, 6, and 7. The property has a documented history of elevator problems, with complaints in 2022 regarding the single device and lack of alternate service. Several violations related to exterior maintenance have been recorded, including issues with facade and wall conditions between 2020-2022, and there are active violations for failure to file required energy benchmarking reports.

Noteworthy is the building's consistent passing of rodent inspections from 2019 to 2025, though there was one instance of rat activity noted in early 2019. The building's management has generally responded to violations and inspection findings, with some repairs certified as completed, though certain ongoing maintenance issues persist as of 2025. Recent permit activity shows continued maintenance work, with multiple plumbing and exterior work permits issued or in process throughout 2025, suggesting active management of the building's maintenance needs.
