586 West 178th Street, Manhattan, NY 10033
The 5-story, 30-unit tenement building at 586 West 178th Street in Washington Heights, owned by Aaron Bauer, has experienced recurring issues with plumbing and heating systems throughout 2025. Most recently, in May 2025, there have been multiple complaints regarding water supply issues, with one complaint still remaining open as of May 11, 2025. The building has also faced several heat and hot water service interruptions, including a confirmed outage in May 2025 that was reportedly resolved shortly after HPD's response.
The property shows a pattern of maintenance challenges, with multiple plumbing complaints in a short period, some of which resulted in HPD being unable to complete inspections. The building has a notable history of violations and maintenance issues that warrant attention. In December 2024, multiple violations were documented in apartment 21, including problems with radiators, lead paint hazards, water leaks, and mold conditions.
Historical data from the past few years shows varying results in rodent inspections, with the most recent inspection in October 2024 passing, though previous inspections indicated rat activity. The building's maintenance record includes several instances where inspectors were unable to gain access to complete necessary inspections, particularly in January 2025 regarding heat issues and in various 2024 complaints about different maintenance matters. While the building's bedbug reporting shows no units affected in recent filings, the recurring nature of heating and plumbing complaints suggests ongoing maintenance challenges within this 1911 structure.
