627 West 115th Street, Manhattan, NY 10025

The six-story building at 627 West 115th Street in Morningside Heights, dating back to 1903 and classified as a Class A residence, has experienced several notable maintenance issues in recent years. Most significantly, in January 2022, the entire building faced heat and hot water problems that required emergency intervention by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

Multiple complaints were filed and subsequently verified as corrected by HPD within days of their submission. The building currently has open violations dating from 2023-2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though previous violations from 2021 and 2022 on the same issue had been closed. Despite these issues, the building has typically maintained good pest control compliance, with three consecutive successful rodent inspections completed in 2024-2025, and no documented rodent problems in over eight years.

The bedbug reporting history shows consistent documentation between 2017-2022, with no reported infestations during the specified periods, and most recently, the 2022 report indicated zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units. While the building has faced some significant heating system challenges and currently has unresolved bedbug reporting violations, its regular rodent inspection pass rate and historical bedbug management suggest generally effective pest control practices. The heat system issues from 2022, though impactful, appear to have been promptly addressed based on subsequent inspections and tenant verification.
