147 West 111th Street, Manhattan, NY 10026
147 West 111th Street is a 5-story, 10-unit old law tenement building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Jonathan Bakhash. The building has experienced persistent maintenance issues over recent years, with the most significant current concerns being multiple open plumbing-related complaints in 2025 regarding water supply issues (as recent as April 2025), and water leak problems from February 2025 that are still unresolved.
The property has a documented history of heating and hot water issues, with multiple emergencies recorded in both 2023 and 2024, though some of these complaints were closed due to inability to gain apartment access for inspection. The building has faced significant pest control challenges, with multiple violations and service requests regarding rodent activity between 2023 and 2025, including recent inspections in April 2025 showing rat activity and the application of bait. Previous inspections and complaints indicate ongoing problems with building systems and resident comfort, including violations related to carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, door issues, and water temperature problems.
The building's history also shows repeated complaints about unsanitary conditions and pest infestations, though recent bedbug reports from 2021-2025 indicate no current infestations. There were two complaints in 2018 regarding illegal conversion and certificate of occupancy issues, but inspectors were unable to gain access to complete their investigation. While some violations from 2022 and 2024 have been closed, many of the most pressing current issues remain unresolved as of 2025, particularly regarding water supply and pest control.
