524 West 122nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10027

The 6-story, 23-unit New Law tenement building at 524 West 122nd Street in Morningside Heights, owned by David Greenberg, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there have been two heat and hot water emergencies affecting the entire building in 2024-2025, with the most recent incident occurring in November 2024. The building has also faced various structural and maintenance challenges, including balcony/porch issues (April 2024), pest-related problems (November 2022), and a water supply plumbing problem (June 2019).

While all these complaints have been closed, some required multiple follow-ups to confirm resolution. The building has received multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations regarding bedbug reporting, with the most recent notice issued in April 2024, though subsequent filings show no infestation (most recent report showed zero infested units for the period 2023-2024). Additionally, there are two active violations related to exterior wall inspections (FISP) with penalties totaling $6,250 from 2022.

The property has consistently passed rodent inspections over the past decade (2016-2025), indicating effective pest management. Two permits were issued in 2018 for plumbing and exterior work, suggesting some infrastructure improvements were undertaken during that period. While the building has experienced periodic maintenance issues, historical data shows that most problems have been addressed through proper channels, despite some requiring multiple inspections or confirmations of resolution.
