219 West 106th Street, Manhattan, NY 10025

219 West 106th Street is a 12-unit, 5-story Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1925, currently owned by 215-17-19 West 106th Street Realty Associates. The property has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water, most recently documented in December 2024 when the Housing Preservation and Development Department received complaints about heat/hot water problems affecting the entire building. This incident occurred just days before the closure of multiple Code violations in apartment 3W, which included issues with the kitchen sink waste line, plaster and paint conditions in the kitchen, and problems in both bathrooms.

These violations are currently open and awaiting resolution. The building has a documented history of rodent-related issues, with complaints about both rat and mouse sightings recorded in 2022 and 2020. However, recent inspections from January 2025, March 2024, March 2023, and others have consistently passed rodent inspections, indicating improved conditions.

Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with no infestations reported in recent years, as evidenced by multiple filings showing zero affected units and eradication counts from 2021 through 2025. Previous violations included inadequate exterior lighting at the front entrance (2019) and hot water issues in apartment 3E (2015), both of which were eventually resolved. The property's maintenance record suggests ongoing attention to pest control, with multiple bait applications in 2022 followed by successive passing inspections.
