850 West End Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10025

850 West End Avenue is a historic six-story converted old law tenement building constructed in 1905, currently owned by Robert Beda. The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, most notably a heating and hot water system failure affecting the entire building in late 2022, which resulted in multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations including locked boiler room access and inadequate hot water provision in apartment 615.

The building has maintained consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2021 to 2024, showing no instances of infestation during these periods. Multiple violations were issued in 2019 related to required safety and informational postings in common areas, including carbon monoxide detector requirements and gas leak procedures, though these were subsequently certified as corrected. The building's record shows regular inspections and passing results for rodent control from 2014 through 2024, indicating effective pest management.

There were two Department of Buildings violations recorded in 2018-2020 and one complaint regarding illegal hotel rooms in 2019, though these were either resolved or resulted in insufficient information to pursue further action. The most recent violations and complaints have been addressed and closed in a timely manner, with the building demonstrating ongoing compliance with most regulatory requirements, including timely bedbug reporting and successful rodent inspections. The property's maintenance history suggests a pattern of addressing violations systematically, though the recent heating system issues in late 2022-early 2023 indicate there may be periodic challenges with building systems that affect resident comfort.
