530 West 153rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10031
530 West 153rd Street is a 14-unit, 5-story New Law tenement building in Hamilton Heights, built in 1900 and currently owned by Romula Batista. The building has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues throughout 2023-2024, with multiple emergency complaints filed by tenants between June 30, 2023, and January 2024, though inspections typically found no violations.
More recently, in May 2024, there were two complaints regarding unsanitary conditions related to pests, which were also closed without violations being found. The building currently has several open housing maintenance code violations from 2023-2024, including issues with smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, hot water systems, and access to the heating system. The property has a concerning history of illegal occupancy issues from 2019, when multiple violations were recorded regarding Apartment 15 being converted to contain multiple unauthorized dwelling units, along with safety concerns related to means of egress, fire alarms, and sprinkler systems.
While these violations were resolved, they originally indicated significant safety concerns. The building's rodent inspection records show generally good results since 2022, passing all recent inspections in 2023-2025, though there were some failures noted in 2022. Notably, there have been three open violations recorded in 2023-2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports.
