505 West 134th Street, Manhattan, NY 10031
505 West 134th Street is a 5-story, 19-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1905 and currently owned by Salvatore Davola. The building has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years, with multiple open complaints recorded in 2022 related to various problems including heat/hot water (affecting both entire building and individual apartments), wall paint/plaster, and floor conditions.
While these complaints remain open according to the latest available data, it's worth noting that the building has consistently passed rodent inspections from 2017 through 2025, with the most recent inspection in May 2025 showing no violations. The property has active violations related to the failure to file required annual inspections, including three consecutive years (2019-2024) for boiler/external low pressure inspections, and a notable incident of defective/inoperative boiler systems documented in April 2019. More recent building management appears to be addressing some maintenance requirements, as evidenced by multiple work permits issued between 2019 and 2024 for electrical work and other maintenance needs.
The building's bedbug reporting history from 2022 to 2024 indicates no recorded infestations during these periods, suggesting effective pest management practices. Recent complaints about rodent sightings (May 2024) were investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, who found no violations during their inspection. While the building has a history of various violations and complaints, the property has consistently passed routine inspections and maintains active bedbug reporting compliance, though attention to the numerous open complaints from March 2022 regarding heating and maintenance issues would be warranted.
