255 West 113th Street, Manhattan, NY 10026
The three-unit, three-story residential building at 255 West 113th Street in Harlem, owned by Michelle Stjohn and built in 1890, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past decade. The most pressing recent concerns involve multiple active Department of Buildings violations for failure to file external low pressure inspections between 2018 and 2023, with the most recent violation issued in September 2024.
Notably, there remains an active complaint from June 2025 regarding illegal hotel rooms in the residential building. The building underwent multiple rodent inspections between 2020 and 2025, with the most recent inspections in June 2024 and 2025 recording passed results, though there were instances of rat activity recorded in early 2020. The property has a documented history of various maintenance problems, particularly during late 2018 when multiple emergency complaints were filed including issues with heat and hot water, water supply, electrical problems, floors, and window frames.
While all these complaints were closed, most could not be inspected due to lack of access. The building also has regular annual bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent 2024 report showing no infested units. The property underwent several inspections related to its rodent control program, showing improvements over time with most recent inspections passing, though there was one failure in June 2023 for "Other Reasons."
