314 West 101st Street, Manhattan, NY 10025

314 West 101st Street is a five-story, ten-unit residential building located in Manhattan's Upper West Side, built in 1901 and owned by Andrew Doppelt. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, with multiple building-wide complaints logged between 2019 and 2025, including recent complaints in 2023 (November) and 2025 (January).

The most recent inspection in December 2023 revealed several violations in Apartment 10, including defective smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detecting devices, and hot water temperature issues exceeding 130 degrees. The building has also faced pest control challenges, with documented rat activity in mid-2023 and earlier rodent issues, though recent inspections in 2024 show compliance with rodent control requirements. The property has maintained regular bedbug reporting compliance from 2017 through 2024, with no documented infestations during this period.

Additional maintenance concerns have included door and window issues (most recently in 2025), plumbing problems (inspected in 2022), and appliance-related matters (2020), though most of these complaints were resolved without violations being issued. Recent inspections have attempted to address various safety features, including smoke detectors and security doors, particularly focusing on deficiencies noted in Apartment 10. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic utility services and periodic infrastructure issues, while also demonstrating some responsiveness to regulatory requirements through inspection and violation resolution processes.
