124 La Salle Street, Manhattan, NY 10027

The 14-unit, 5-story residential building at 124 La Salle Street in Morningside Heights, owned by Monica Kuth, has experienced recurring heating and water supply issues over the past several years. Most notably, between October 2021 and April 2022, there were multiple emergency complaints regarding heating and hot water problems affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, with one instance leading to violations for inadequate hot water in Apartment 1A.

The building underwent various inspections and maintenance checks, revealing some persistent infrastructure concerns, including water leaks in Apartment 2B identified in March 2022, though these violations were eventually closed in April 2022. More recent inspections from 2024-2025 have focused on rodent activity, with several inspections documenting rat presence and bait application, particularly noting activity in March and April 2025.

The building's maintenance history includes several heating system-related violations, particularly in late 2021, regarding access to the boiler room in the basement, and the need for proper posting of heating system information in the public hall. While the building has maintained an active bedbug reporting record between 2020 and 2024, with no reported infestations or eradications, the property currently has two open violations from 2021 regarding the proper display of inspection certificates in the mail area and heating system access, according to the most recent data. The building's heating and water supply systems have been a consistent source of tenant complaints, with multiple heating-related service requests documented between 2019 and 2022, though many were resolved without violations being issued.
