202 West 148th Street, Manhattan, NY 10039
The 100-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement at 202 West 148th Street in Harlem, built in 1920 and currently owned by Site 13 Apartment Owners, LLC, is experiencing significant maintenance challenges as of mid-2025. The building has documented multiple water-related issues, with recent emergency complaints in May 2025 including heavy water leaks and radiator problems. There are persistent pest control challenges, with rodent activity confirmed through multiple inspections in 2025 and previous incidents of cockroach infestations in apartments 2H and 3J documented in late 2024.
The property has a history of elevator-related violations, with complaints about "Multiple Devices on Property" dating back to 2020-2025, and an Environmental Control Board violation from October 2024 regarding elevator maintenance and testing requirements, resulting in a $1,250 penalty. Building maintenance records show ongoing issues with building systems and security features, including several complaints about doors and windows in various apartments that were not able to be properly inspected by HPD in May 2025. These include complaints about doors, windows, cabinets, and issues with paint/plaster on walls.
The property has also been cited for various housing maintenance code violations, including self-closing door issues documented in November 2024 for multiple doors in public areas. While there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the past three years according to the required reporting, the most pressing current concerns appear to be related to water management, pest control, and elevator maintenance. The building's age and history as a New Law Tenement are evident in the type and frequency of maintenance issues reported.
