122 West 109th Street, Manhattan, NY 10025

The five-story, 10-unit tenement building at 122 West 109th Street, owned by Robin Baez and constructed in 1900, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there have been recurring problems with heat and hot water, including a building-wide outage in February 2025 and various inspections in 2023 and 2022 with mixed results.

The property has also faced significant pest management challenges, with multiple rodent activity reports and several instances of both rat activity and bait application in 2023, though a recent inspection in July 2024 resulted in a "Passed" status. There are documented issues with water damage and mold, including a 2025 complaint that was closed without violations, and a 2022 incident involving multiple unsanitary conditions including pests and plumbing problems.

The building's condition has generated multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations, particularly affecting apartment 3F in 2023, which had issues with doors, plaster, and rodent infestation. The property has maintained an apparently successful bedbug control record over the past several years, with no reported infestations or eradications from 2019 through 2024. While some violations and complaints have been promptly addressed and closed, the recurring nature of certain issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges within the building.
