304 West 102nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10025

304 West 102nd Street is a 5-story, 15-unit residential building located in Manhattan's Upper West Side, constructed in 1895 and currently owned by Javier Teutle. The building has experienced several window-related safety issues over the past few years, with three complaints about broken or missing window guards filed between October and December 2022, though no violations were ultimately issued by HPD. More recently, there was a window frame complaint filed in December 2022 that remained open until June 2023.

The Department of Buildings has maintained close oversight of the property, with the most recent violation in 2023 concerning the failure to file the 2022 external low-pressure inspection, though this was subsequently dismissed. Historical records from 2018 show serious safety violations involving unauthorized gas connections and work performed without permits, including an illegal gas tap-off installation supplying a cellar apartment, though these violations were resolved with monetary penalties. The building has consistently passed rodent inspections from 2015 through 2024, indicating effective pest management practices.

Additionally, the property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all annual filings from 2019 through 2024 reporting zero infested units. The building's maintenance history shows regular compliance with basic safety requirements, though the 2022-2023 window safety issues suggest some ongoing concerns with window-related safety features. The property's most recent inspection in April 2025 was passed, and while there were some significant violations in 2018 related to gas safety and unauthorized work, these were addressed through fines and resolved status.
