207 West 136th Street is a 3-story, 4-unit residential building located in Harlem, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Orit Katzir. The building has experienced several significant issues over the past few years, with the most notable being a period of heating system failures in late 2019, when multiple complaints were filed regarding lack of heat and hot water throughout the entire building. In 2022, the property underwent emergency repairs for various plumbing issues, including problems with radiators and sinks. The building reportedly faced unauthorized transient occupancy issues in 2022, with multiple violations issued against "Stay In Manhattan LLC" for converting residential units to non-permanent uses, though these violations were subsequently resolved with penalties totaling $10,250.
The property has a documented history of maintenance issues, particularly in 2018-2019, with multiple complaints regarding unsanitary conditions, pests, and problems with doors/windows. Violations recorded in 2022 included various maintenance issues requiring attention to walls, ceilings, and door mechanisms, while earlier violations in 2018 noted issues with building signage and heating system documentation. Recent records show consistent passing rates in rodent inspections from 2022 to 2025, indicating improved pest management. Notably, there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the annual reporting period since 2020, suggesting successful pest control measures. The most recent violation in January 2024 involved a door closing mechanism issue in the first-story vestibule, though there have been no major complaints or violations recorded in the past year related to heating, plumbing, or occupancy issues.
