532 West 152nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10031
532 West 152nd Street is a 5-story, 21-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Leslie Lerner. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2024, with four emergency HPD complaints between October and December 2024 regarding building-wide service failures, one of which required confirmation of corrections through tenant contact.
The building has also faced persistent water-related problems, with multiple complaints between 2023-2024 about slow leaks and damp spots, particularly affecting Apartment 23 on the 2nd story, as well as sewage issues reported in October 2023. Safety and maintenance concerns have been evident, including open violations as of September 2024 regarding broken or defective marble treads in the public hall stairs and a defective egress door leading to the yard. Previous inspections in 2023 identified several building maintenance issues, including water leaks into light fixtures and problems with the mechanical air vent in Apartment 23.
The Department of Buildings has recorded multiple inspections regarding rodent activity, with the most recent inspections in 2024-2025 passing compliance, though there were instances of rat activity noted in early 2023. The building's infrastructure appears to have received attention, with permits issued in 2018 and 2021 for plumbing and other work, though an active violation exists regarding the failure to file the 2022 External Low Pressure Inspection report. Historical records show minimal bedbug activity, with the most recent filings in 2023 reporting no infested units.
