100 West 142nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10037

100 West 142nd Street is a 6-story, 22-unit residential building constructed in 1910, currently owned by 100 W 142nd St HDFC. The building has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns in 2025 including an open door-related complaint (since January 2025) and a recently closed bell/intercom system problem that led to HPD issuing violations. Multiple heat/hot water complaints affecting the entire building were reported and resolved in late 2024, along with various door/window issues and a significant water leak.

A substantial number of housing violations remain unresolved, particularly concerning apartment 3C, which has multiple open violations from mid-2024 including issues with doors, carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detector, mold, window repairs, and plastered surfaces. The building has also faced challenges with rodent control, with several inspections in 2025 showing active rodent issues, as evidenced by both bait application and failed compliance inspections. The property has undergone various inspections and received multiple violations over the past few years, including three active violations from 2023 related to failure to file external low-pressure inspections, and a 2024 ECB violation concerning apartment 3A's interior window condition with evidence of minor water leakage.

The building's recent history shows recurring issues with basic services and maintenance, including multiple door/window complaints, heating system problems, and building-wide infrastructure concerns. Two structural stability complaints were filed in May 2024, and there has been ongoing concern about building systems such as the boiler and intercom system. While some issues have been resolved promptly through HPD inspections and repairs, several violations and complaints remain active as of the latest data, particularly concerning safety systems and building maintenance standards.
