619 West 136th Street, Manhattan, NY 10031
The five-story New Law Tenement at 619 West 136th Street in Hamilton Heights, owned by Sonia Perez, has been experiencing persistent heat and hot water issues throughout early 2025, with multiple complaints filed between January and February 2025. During this period, the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was frequently unable to gain access to units for inspection, though some complaints were addressed through phone verification of conditions. These ongoing heating system problems appear to be a significant pattern, given the concentration of complaints over multiple weeks.
The building has a history of safety and maintenance concerns that require attention. In December 2024, violations were issued regarding apartment 10's self-closing door, smoke detector, and carbon monoxide detector. Earlier, apartment 1 had similar issues documented in October 2024, along with a violation for scalding hot water exceeding 130 degrees.
Additionally, there is an active Department of Buildings violation from January 2020 regarding an unfiled boiler inspection report. While the building has consistently reported zero bedbug infestations in annual filings from 2021 to 2024, and passed most rodent inspections, there have been documented issues with rat activity in early 2024. The most recent rodent inspections in 2024-2025 show passing results, indicating possible improvement in pest control measures. Overall, the building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with heating systems and safety equipment, though some recent improvements in rodent control are noted.
