303 West 154th Street, Manhattan, NY 10039

303 West 154th Street is a 6-story, 54-unit New Law tenement built in 1929, currently owned by Adi Selimovic. The building has experienced ongoing elevator issues, with multiple complaints throughout 2023-2025 regarding "Single Device on Property/No Alternate Service". The elevator system remains a significant concern, with active complaints as recent as June 2025.

In spring 2025, there was a cluster of maintenance issues including problems with heat and hot water, followed by multiple complaints about plumbing (toilet issues), water leaks, wall conditions, and intercom systems between May and July 2025. The building's maintenance history shows recurring problems with heating systems, as evidenced by multiple heat/hot water complaints in early 2025, though some inspections found no violations. The property has also faced challenges with pest control, including an unsanitary condition related to pests reported in November 2024, and various maintenance issues including deteriorating paint/plaster surfaces in multiple apartments. The building has several open violations that require attention, including ongoing elevator safety concerns documented by the Department of Buildings, with fines totaling $625.00 for various elevator-related issues.

Housing Maintenance Code violations from late 2024 indicate problems with water leaks, peeling paint, and pest infestations in apartments 3C and 4D. The property has demonstrated generally effective rodent control, passing multiple inspections between 2018 and 2025, though a 2023 inspection noted rat activity. While there are no recent bedbug infestations reported (with the last noted case in 2023), the building has had a history of dealing with such issues. The building's financial records show multiple dismissed violations related to energy efficiency reporting and certification requirements between 2020-2021, suggesting periodic issues with regulatory compliance, though these violations were ultimately resolved.
