535 West 155th Street, Manhattan, NY 10032

535 West 155th Street is a 5-story, 21-unit residential building constructed in 1906 and currently owned by Kobi Zamir. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly with heat and hot water systems, as evidenced by three such complaints (two for the entire building and one for individual apartments) within January 2025 alone. Other notable recent concerns include an unresolved gas line installation violation from February 2024 in apartment 42, for which the Department of Buildings issued a $1,250 penalty.

The building also had multiple emergency complaints in December 2024, including issues with heat/hot water, plumbing (steam pipe/riser), door problems, and mold. Apartment 53 currently has three open violations from December 2024 related to roof leakage, bathroom tile, and plaster/paint issues. The building's maintenance history shows a mix of resolved and ongoing issues, with some improvements noted in recent years.

It has maintained a clean record regarding pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past five years and recent rodent inspections consistently passing since 2015. Multiple permits for plumbing and electrical work have been issued between 2018 and 2020, suggesting active maintenance and upgrading of building systems. While recent complaints were addressed by Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), with most being closed after verification of corrections, the frequency and nature of the complaints indicate ongoing maintenance challenges. The building's bedbug and rodent history suggests effective pest management, though recent moisture-related issues (including mold and water leaks) appear to be a more pressing concern, particularly in apartments 43 and 53.
