609 West 174th Street, Manhattan, NY 10033
The 609 West 174th Street building, a 6-story, 43-unit Class A residential building constructed in 1936, currently has significant maintenance concerns warranting attention. Most pressing are the building's water and heat systems: between March and May 2025, multiple complaints were filed regarding heavy water leaks (from March 16-18, 2025) and heat/hot water issues affecting the entire building (January 2025 and March 2025).
The property has also experienced elevator service issues, with an active complaint regarding single device/no alternate service from June 2025. Additional maintenance problems include a 2024 electrical wiring issue that resulted in an inspector being unable to gain access during the second final attempt, and a problematic door situation in Apartment 106 identified in February 2023. The building's historical maintenance record shows a pattern of heating and water supply issues, with multiple heat/hot water complaints in January 2025 and violations regarding inadequate heat and hot water supply in Apartment 106 noted in 2023.
While there have been periodic concerns about pest control, particularly regarding bedbugs (with one report of an infestation in 2021 which appears to have been addressed), recent bedbug filings show zero infested units from 2021 through 2024. Rodent inspections have generally passed since 2016, with only one instance of rat activity reported in 2022. The building's maintenance history suggests recurring challenges with basic services like heat and water supply, though most other maintenance issues from previous years have been resolved successfully.
