33 West 56th Street, Manhattan, NY 10019
33 West 56th Street, also known as The Centurion Condominium, is a 17-story, 47-unit residential building constructed in 2008 and currently owned by Julius Schwartz. The property has experienced recurring elevator issues, with multiple violations related to elevator maintenance and inspection failures documented between 2019-2024, including an active violation from 2019 for failing to correct defects noted in a 2017 inspection. The building has also faced challenges with required safety inspections and reporting, including multiple violations for failing to submit mandatory Cycle 8C and 9C reports of critical examination for exterior walls, with the most recent active violation from February 2024 regarding the FISP Cycle 9C Technical Report.
There have been three separate incidents related to heat and hot water issues, most recently in January 2024, though these complaints were inspected and found to have no violations. The building's recent history shows no infestation of bedbugs in the past five years, and it passed rodent inspections conducted in 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2021, with only one reported rodent sighting in 2021 that resulted in no violations. The Centurion has also had three significant violations regarding occupancy issues.
These include an active violation from 2019 for using a legal public garage as a pick storage area, and two other inspections conducted in 2020 and 2024 regarding illegal conversions, though the 2024 inspection was unable to locate sufficient information to substantiate the complaint. The building has demonstrated compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, consistently reporting zero infested units since 2019. While the property has maintained an overall good record in most areas, the recurring elevator maintenance issues, exterior wall inspection violations, and occupancy-related violations suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance compliance. The most recent service request for heat/hot water in January 2024 was addressed promptly with no violations found.
