245 West 109th Street is a 5-story, 15-unit old law tenement building located in Manhattan's Upper West Side, built in 1910 and currently owned by Joshua Gotlib. The property has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues throughout 2025, with multiple complaints filed between March and May 2025, though HPD inspections often found the service restored by the time of their visit.
Recent rodent activity has also been a concern, with multiple inspections showing rat activity between October 2024 and June 2025, and bait application occurring regularly in 2025. The building has two active Environmental Control Board violations from December 2023 regarding unauthorized cellar modifications, including a staircase installation and unauthorized living space usage, with associated penalties. The building's maintenance history reveals several infrastructure concerns, particularly regarding the boiler system, with six separate complaints between October 2023 and January 2024, though inspectors often found no violations upon inspection.
Apartment 7 underwent repairs in 2024 for multiple issues including light fixture replacement, electrical outlet repairs, and bathroom renovations, while Apartment 9 required attention for water leaks and various maintenance issues. The property has maintained a mostly pest-free record in recent years, with no bedbug infestations reported in the last three reporting periods (2022-2024). Building-wide inspections in 2024 identified several violations requiring attention to public areas and various apartment-specific issues, most of which have been certified as corrected, including repairs to electrical systems and bathroom facilities.
