273 West 150th Street, Manhattan, NY 10039

273 West 150th Street is a 5-story, 15-unit residential building in Harlem, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Hph Trio, Llc. The building has experienced consistent heat and hot water system issues throughout 2023-2024, with multiple emergency complaints filed by tenants. Sixteen heat/hot water complaints were recorded between December 2023 and December 2024, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building.

While most of these complaints were subsequently marked as resolved after HPD intervention, their recurring nature suggests ongoing maintenance challenges with the building's heating system. The building has also faced various maintenance issues over the past several years. In 2021, Apartment 3B experienced multiple violations including pest infestation (roaches), broken self-closing doors, and inadequate hot water supply, while Apartment 5B had problems with missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and defective walls.

A 2018 complaint regarding illegal hotel rooms was investigated but found no violations. Notably, all bedbug reporting from 2019 through 2024 shows no infestation cases, and recent rodent inspections in 2023 and 2024 have resulted in "Passed" ratings, though bait was applied in 2022. The building's maintenance history shows regular bedbug reporting compliance with zero reported infestations, and all housing maintenance code violations from 2020-2024 have been documented as closed, suggesting that while there are recurring heating system issues, other maintenance concerns have typically been addressed.
