671 West 162nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10032
The 6-story, 48-unit building at 671 West 162nd Street in Washington Heights, built in 1922 and currently owned by Miguel Peres, has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent years, particularly between 2024-2025. The building has had recurring problems with heat and hot water, with multiple complaints filed in 2025, including an emergency response in May 2025.
Water-related issues are prominent, with multiple reports of leaks (heavy flow, slow leaks) between February and April 2025, and corresponding Housing Maintenance Code violations. In November 2024, significant violations were issued for Apartment 33, including defective bathroom tiles, plastered surfaces, and safety devices, though these were certified as corrected by December 2024. The elevator system has been a persistent concern, with multiple complaints documented between 2019-2024 regarding single-device operation and lack of alternate service, culminating in a Class 1 Environmental Control Board violation in October 2024 related to water damage and faulty equipment, for which a $3,125 penalty was imposed.
The building has undergone several inspections for rodent activity, with mixed results between 2018-2025; most recent inspections in 2024-2025 showed passing results, though a September 2023 inspection noted rat activity. Notably, there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the past five years (2019-2024), and the building's most recent environmental records indicate compliance with pest control requirements. While the building's management has responded to complaints and addressed some violations, the frequency of maintenance issues suggests ongoing challenges with building systems and resident comfort.
