304 West 104th Street, Manhattan, NY 10025

304 West 104th Street is a 4-story, 9-unit residential building on the Upper West Side, constructed in 1892 and currently owned by 304 W104 LLC. The property has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues, particularly evident in late 2018 when multiple complaints were filed for both the entire building and individual apartments, leading to at least three confirmed violations regarding inadequate heat and hot water supply. There was also a concerning pattern of cooking gas-related complaints during late 2018, with violations documented in both November 2018 and January 2019.

More recently, in April 2023, the building received a Department of Buildings violation for failure to file the 2022 External Low Pressure Inspection, which remains active as of the current date. However, there have been no bedbug infestations reported in the past seven years, with the most recent filings from 2024 and 2023 indicating zero infested units. The building has maintained a good record for rodent control, passing inspections in 2024 and 2023, though there were some concerning results in April 2022 with recorded rat activity, which was subsequently addressed with bait application.

The building's recent history shows improvement in certain areas, with no heating or bedbug issues reported in the past two years. While the active violation regarding the 2022 External Low Pressure Inspection should be noted, it's worth mentioning that the building has successfully addressed multiple heating and gas issues from 2018-2019, as evidenced by the closure of associated violations. Regular rodent inspections since 2016 have consistently shown compliance, with only temporary issues noted in 2022. The property has also maintained a clean bedbug record for the past seven years, with no infestations reported during the annual filing periods.
