AI summary · updated June 2026

The Princeton Club of New York, located at 15 West 43rd Street in Midtown Manhattan, is a 9-story, Class B building constructed in 1962. The property has a significant number of active violations as of 2025, most notably regarding failure to comply with New York City's Energy Efficiency Reporting requirements, with multiple violations for not submitting Benchmarking Reports (2023-2024), not displaying Energy Efficiency Score and Grade, and not submitting the required Energy Efficiency Report (EER). There are also open violations related to bedbug reporting requirements for 2023 and 2024. The building has a history of elevator-related issues, with a complaint in 2021 regarding single-device service with no alternate, resulting in an Oath Violation.

Historically, the property has maintained a relatively clean record regarding pest control, with no reported bedbug infestations between 2018-2021, and all past inspections (2010-2012) passed regarding rodent control. The building underwent facade-related work in 2019, with multiple permits issued for work described under the Emergency Work (EW) category. An Environmental Control Board violation from 2022 regarding an alarm system malfunction was resolved with a penalty, while there remains an active violation from 2022 concerning the Exterior Wall Critical Examination Report (Cycle 9A), with a $6,250 penalty still due. In summary, the building currently faces challenges primarily related to energy reporting compliance and facade maintenance requirements, while maintaining a good record regarding pest control in recent years.
