130 West 142nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10030
130 West 142nd Street is a 60-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement building in Harlem, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Alexander Berkovitch. The property has experienced ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly in recent months, with multiple HPD complaints in May 2025 including issues with pests, plumbing (sink), flooring, and building intercom systems. These complaints have generally been closed due to inspection access issues.
The building has a documented rodent infestation history, with multiple service requests and inspections between 2024-2025 showing persistent rat activity, though there was a period of approximately one year where no rat activity was reported (between 2023-2024). Housing Maintenance Code violations have been issued in 2024 for various issues including plumbing and repair requirements in apartment 5D, and problems with self-closing doors and garbage receptacles in common areas. The building's recent history shows recurring sanitary issues, particularly regarding pests, with multiple complaints filed between April and May 2025.
Earlier violations from 2024 included problems with the building's front entrance lock, garbage disposal system, and multiple maintenance issues affecting hot water supply and plumbing fixtures in apartment 5D. Additional concerns were raised about the elevator system in 2024-2025, though inspections showed no violations. The property has maintained a relatively stable record regarding bedbug infestations, with only one documented case in 2020, and subsequent annual reports showing zero infested units through 2024-2025.
