814 West End Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10025

814 West End Avenue is a 16-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1926, containing 96 residential units and currently owned by Yola Friedman. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints recorded between 2019 and 2025, including several emergency complaints covering the entire building. While some complaints were resolved through inspections and corrections, significant patterns of heating system problems are evident, particularly during late 2024 and early 2025.

More recent maintenance concerns include active open complaints from June 2025 relating to electrical and plumbing issues, including problems with outlets, sinks, and toilets. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections (passing all between 2017 and 2025), though there have been some rodent-related complaints, the most recent in 2025 being related to conditions attracting rodents. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with no reported infestations or treatments in the past seven reporting periods from 2018 through 2025.

Compliance with the NYC Department of Buildings has shown some areas of concern, with violations recorded in 2022 related to boiler and elevator issues, though these were subsequently resolved. The building has also faced occasional sanitation and garbage storage violations, particularly noted in 2019. Recent building systems maintenance has included multiple permit issuances for equipment work and elevator maintenance between 2018 and 2019, and the property has passed all recent rodent inspections, most recently in June 2025.
