105 West 113th Street, Manhattan, NY 10026

105 West 113th Street is a five-story, ten-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Harlem, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Brayan Lemus. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues throughout 2025, particularly concerning heat and hot water systems, with multiple emergency complaints filed between March and May 2025.

These issues appear to affect both individual apartments and the entire building, though some complaints were marked as duplicates or were closed after verifying that conditions had been corrected. More recently, in June 2025, there was a plumbing-related water supply issue that HPD was unable to inspect fully. The building has also faced persistent rat activity, with multiple inspections confirming this problem between 2024 and 2025 despite bait application efforts in July 2024.

Several apartments have documented violations requiring correction, including Apartment 5B (window guards, lead paint hazard, and bathroom caulking issues), Apartment 1A (bathroom mold and plaster repair needs), and Apartment 4B (bathroom tile and toilet connection issues), with some of these violations still marked as open. Additionally, the building experienced water leak issues in early 2025, for which violations were issued. The property's bedbug history shows no reported infestations or eradications from 2018 through 2024, and there was a complaint regarding illegal hotel rooms in 2019, though the inspector was unable to gain access.
