610 West 152nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10031
The 6-story New Law Tenement building at 610 West 152nd Street in Hamilton Heights, owned by Kenneth Gerstenfeld, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues in recent years, with multiple emergency complaints filed between 2024 and 2025 indicating building-wide problems. The building has also faced persistent maintenance challenges, including sanitary concerns with pigeon waste (with violations noted in early 2025), and accessibility issues examined in 2020 regarding blocked egress paths.
In March 2024, safety inspections resulted in violations related to fire door latches and self-closing mechanisms, while apartment 62 was cited for defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. The elevator system has required attention, with violations issued in 2018 and 2020 regarding various safety features and service requirements. Rodent inspections show a mixed record, with several passing results in 2024-2025, though a failed inspection in January 2025 and prior activity noted in 2022 raises concerns about pest management.
The building's bedbug reporting history shows mostly zero cases reported from 2021 onwards, with only two units noted in 2022 and 2019. Compliance with building safety requirements has been variable, with violations related to hot water temperature in late 2023, and a failure to file a required benchmarking report in 2022. The building's permit history shows work completed under job number 123156306 in early 2019, though specific details of the work performed are not provided in the available data.
