609 West 177th Street, Manhattan, NY 10033
The five-story, 20-unit residential building at 609 West 177th Street in Washington Heights, owned by Dov Schreiber, has experienced several notable issues impacting resident comfort and safety since 2020. Most recent concerns, as of mid-2024, include a cluster of complaints in May 2024 regarding door and intercom systems, which the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to inspect. Earlier in 2024, both the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene and HPD documented issues, including an unsanitary animal condition involving a dog and multiple door-related problems.
The building has a history of water-related issues, particularly in 2022, with several documented heavy flow water leak complaints, though inspections resulted in no violations. Apartment 2 has faced ongoing maintenance challenges, with documented violations related to water leaks and ceiling conditions that were only certified as corrected in early 2024. The building's maintenance history shows fluctuations in conditions, with most recent Bedbug Reporting filings (from 2022-2024) indicating no current infestations, though there was one documented case in 2019-2020.
Recent rodent inspections throughout 2024 have shown mixed results, with multiple instances of rat activity recorded between February and November 2024, though a compliance inspection in late 2024 resulted in a passing grade. The building has undergone various repairs and maintenance activities as evidenced by the closure of multiple HPD complaints, including those related to paint/plaster work and water leaks, though some issues appeared to persist based on recent complaint patterns. Through the years, the property has maintained compliance with required bedbug reporting, with all recent filings showing zero infested or eradicated units, suggesting improved pest management practices.
