789 West End Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10025

789 West End Avenue is a 13-story, 65-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1916, currently owned by Erick Agosto. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns recorded in 2023 and 2024. In February 2024, a Construction Safety Compliance complaint resulted in a Stop Work Order, though this was subsequently rescinded within a week.

A more serious issue emerged in March 2023 when the building received an LL11/98 Unsafe notification regarding its façade, and as of February 2023, there is an active "CYCLE 9B UNSAFE REPORT" violation still on record. The building's maintenance history shows periodic intervention, with multiple permits issued between 2019-2021 for various construction and repair work, including emergency work (EW) and plumbing (PL) permits. Regarding pest management, the building has maintained a relatively good record in recent years.

The most recent bedbug reports from 2022-2024 show no active infestations, with only two units affected between 2019-2021, both of which were successfully treated. The rodent control inspections present a mixed picture: while initial inspections in 2017-2024 have generally passed, there have been some concerning findings in late 2023, with rat activity detected in September and November 2023. The building underwent several inspections and treatments for rodent control, including bait application in November 2023. Historical data illustrates regular monitoring and prompt response to pest issues, though the recent façade safety notification and active violation warrant attention.
