269 West 134th Street, Manhattan, NY 10030

269 West 134th Street is a 4-story, 11-unit residential building in Harlem, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Icer Of 269 West 134th Street LLC. The property has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most recent cluster of complaints occurring in early 2024. These complaints, all originating on January 15, 2024, included concerns about heat and hot water, window frames, plumbing fixtures, and kitchen cabinets, resulting in multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations.

Of particular note, Apartment 2F had violations related to inadequate heating and improperly secured wall cabinets, though these violations were certified as corrected by late May 2024. The building's historical maintenance record shows a pattern of both routine and emergency repairs, including a radiator issue in March 2022 and various plumbing and window maintenance needs. While there have been several violations related to fire safety systems, such as sprinkler requirements noted in February 2019, these were subsequently addressed.

Of particular importance to resident safety, there is currently an active violation from June 2023 regarding the failure to file the 2018 external low-pressure inspection. The building has maintained a good record in terms of pest control, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past four reporting periods (2021-2023), and recent rodent inspections in 2025 and 2024 passed successfully. The property has undergone regular inspections with generally positive outcomes, though some historical violations relating to heat and window issues suggest ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly in Apartment 2F.
