470 West 165th Street, Manhattan, NY 10032
The five-story, 28-unit tenement building at 470 West 165th Street, owned by David Schwartz, has experienced several notable maintenance and safety issues since 2018. Most recently, in early 2024, there were complaints about indoor air quality related to construction dust. Throughout late 2022, the building faced multiple heat and hot water outages affecting the entire structure, though these issues appeared to be resolved with varying degrees of confirmation from tenants and HPD inspections.
The building has undergone periodic inspections of various systems, with significant findings in 2022-2023 including plumbing issues, mold concerns, and multiple instances of wall, radiator, and intercom problems. An April 2024 inspection revealed violations in apartment 44 related to plaster and lighting fixtures, though most prior violations from 2022-2023 have been closed. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with zero reported cases in the last seven annual filings from 2019 through 2024.
While rodent inspections from 2016 through 2024 show predominantly passing results, there were two periods of "Rat Activity" noted in 2018. Recent maintenance work appears to have been addressed promptly, with multiple complaints from 2024 being closed within days. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of responding to various repair needs, though some complaints from 2022-2023 regarding paint/plaster issues and unsanitary conditions were noted as having "still open" conditions during inspections. The property has an active history of work permits being issued through the Department of Buildings for various maintenance projects from 2019 through 2021, indicating ongoing property maintenance and improvement efforts.
