611 West 112th Street, Manhattan, NY 10025

611 West 112th Street is a 6-story, New Law Single Room Occupancy building located in Morningside Heights, owned by Mark Hersh and constructed in 1904. The building has been undergoing ongoing construction work by Consigli Construction Co, which has resulted in multiple safety violations throughout 2024, including inadequate guardrails, unsafe scaffolding conditions, and improper delivery procedures, with associated penalties totaling nearly $17,000, though some have been resolved. The property has consistently failed to submit required annual bedbug reports since 2022, with open violations continuing through 2024.

While the building has passed multiple rodent inspections between 2021 and 2025, there was one instance of rat activity noted in November 2021. The elevator maintenance records show a failure to file Category 1 inspection/test documentation in 2019, though this violation was eventually dismissed in 2023. The building's maintenance history reveals recurring structural and safety concerns, particularly during the recent construction period.

These include issues with pedestrian safety measures (documented in 2020-2021), concerns about exterior wall conditions, and various construction-related safety violations. The property has also faced challenges with meeting energy benchmarking requirements, as indicated by violations in 2019, 2020, 2022, and 2024, though these were all ultimately dismissed following proper submissions. A comprehensive review of inspection records shows the building's management has maintained compliance with basic maintenance requirements, passing multiple rodent inspections and maintaining accurate bedbug reporting for the 2019-2020 period, despite the recent failures to submit annual reports.
