527 West 121st Street, Manhattan, NY 10027
527 West 121st Street, owned by David Greenberg, is a 6-story, 24-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1926, located in the Morningside Heights neighborhood. The property has several active and outstanding violations that warrant attention.
Most notably, there are three active Department of Buildings violations from 2022-2023 related to failure to file required external inspections, including a FISP Cycle 9A report, and two associated with external low pressure inspections from 2018-2019. Additionally, there is an active complaint from March 2025 regarding the elevator system's single device with no alternate service. The building has maintained a clean record regarding pest control, with zero reported bedbug infestations in the past four reporting periods from 2022-2024, and consistent passed results in rodent inspections over the last ten years from 2016 to 2025.
Recent service requests include a 2024 complaint about the outside building's porch/balcony, which was investigated by HPD but resulted in no violations being issued. While the building has had its share of administrative violations over the years, particularly related to inspection report filings (such as annual boiler inspection and benchmarking reports), it's worth noting that these issues have often been resolved or dismissed, as seen in the 2019-2023 violations. The property's maintenance history shows regular inspections with successful outcomes, particularly in pest control and rodent prevention programs.
