181 Claremont Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10027
181 Claremont Avenue is a 6-story, 24-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1926 in the Morningside Heights neighborhood, currently owned by David Greenberg. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues in recent years, with active violations as of 2023 related to failure to file required external low-pressure inspection reports for 2018 and 2019.
More notably, there are two active environmental control board violations from 2022 concerning maintenance of exterior walls, with documented issues including cracked stucco (vertical crack) at the north elevation's parapet wall, for which penalties of $6,250 each were imposed. The building has demonstrated proactive pest management, with zero reported bedbug infestations in the last four filing periods (2022-2024), though there were previous bedbug-related violations in 2021 and 2024 regarding annual report filings. Recent service requests (April 2024) concerning the outside building porch/balcony were investigated by HPD with no violations found.
The property has maintained consistent rodent control success, passing all inspections from 2018 through early 2025. The Department of Buildings issued several permits in 2019 for exterior work, suggesting ongoing maintenance efforts, though the recent active violations indicate some continuing compliance challenges regarding building systems monitoring and reporting requirements. The building's documented history shows regular maintenance and inspections in various areas, though attention to the outstanding violations regarding exterior maintenance and required reporting remains necessary for full compliance status.
