212 West 104th Street, Manhattan, NY 10025

212 West 104th Street is a 5-story, 10-unit OLD LAW TENEMENT building constructed in 1920, currently owned by Alan Sackman. The property has experienced recurring heating issues, with three building-wide heat/hot water emergencies documented in early 2022, including multiple tenant complaints and verified inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

Additionally, there was a pest infestation problem in August 2021, specifically in apartment 1C, which received two Class C violations related to roach presence and entrance door issues, though the building has since shown consistent compliance with rodent inspections, passing every inspection between 2014 and 2025. Importantly, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all annual filings from 2020 through 2024 showing zero infested or eradicated units. The most recent building conditions indicate stable management response to major issues, with regular annual bedbug reporting compliance since 2021 and consistent passing of rodent inspections.

Since the heat/hot water problems in early 2022, there have been no further documented heating issues, suggesting these earlier problems were addressed. The building's address has been actively monitored for violations, with HPD inspections resulting in documented violations for the 2021 pest issue, which were certified as corrected by September 2021. While the building's age and history show periodic maintenance challenges, the recent patterns indicate improved overall management response and maintenance compliance, particularly regarding the most recent bedbug reporting and rodent control requirements.
