615 West 135th Street, Manhattan, NY 10031
The 5-story, 21-unit tenement building at 615 West 135th Street in Hamilton Heights, owned by Billy Selimovic and built in 1905, is currently experiencing several maintenance issues as of 2025. There are open complaints regarding heat and hot water (January 2025), flooring (January 2025), walls (January 2025), a bathtub/shower (November 2024), and garbage/recycling storage (November 2024).
Recent inspections have shown housing code violations in apartments 50 and 53, including issues with plaster surfaces, floor tiles, fire escape door access, self-closing doors, and lighting fixtures (July 2024). The building has dealt with pest control issues, including documented mouse infestations in 2024 and a bedbug incident in 2022, though recent bedbug reports for 2023-2024 show no units affected. The property has undergone several rodent inspections between 2017 and 2025, with results showing passed inspections in 2023, 2024, and early 2025, suggesting some improvement in rodent control, though earlier inspections in 2022 indicated rat activity.
Multiple 311 complaints related to unsanitary conditions, including garbage storage and mold issues, have been filed, with varying outcomes (some resulting in violations, others closed without violations). The building's heating system has generated multiple emergency complaints in January 2025, though one was determined to be a duplicate of an existing building-wide issue. While there have been numerous complaints and violations, there is evidence of repairs being made, with several violations from 2024 being certified as corrected by September 2024.
