200 West 118th Street, Manhattan, NY 10026
The 16-unit, 5-story tenement building at 200 West 118th Street in Harlem, built in 1910, has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water, most recently in June 2025 and October 2023, when Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to gain access to investigate the complaints. The building has documented multiple plumbing and water-related problems between 2021-2022, including violations related to water supply and various leaks. Apartment 4B has been the subject of several current violations, including issues with hot water temperature exceeding 130 degrees Fahrenheit, mouse infestation, and problems regarding plastered surfaces, paint, and self-closing doors.
The building's exterior has faced ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly with the cornice structure, as evidenced by active violations from March 2025 and 2019. There have been multiple sidewalk shed violations between 2019-2025, including issues with maintenance and safety, resulting in penalties through the Environmental Control Board. Recent rodent control efforts show alternating patterns of activity and effective control measures, with inspections in 2024 showing rat activity despite some passed inspections in 2023-2024.
The building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing no infestations during the past two filing periods (2023-2024). While some historical violations have been resolved, including various water leak issues and heat complaints, the property continues to show significant ongoing maintenance needs, particularly regarding water systems and exterior structural elements. The owners have submitted required annual bedbug reports in 2024 and 2023, showing no infestation cases during those periods. The building's maintenance history suggests persistent challenges with basic infrastructure systems, particularly heating, plumbing, and exterior maintenance, with various open violations as of the latest inspections.
