875 West 181st Street, Manhattan, NY 10033
875 West 181st Street is a 6-story, 84-unit New Law Tenement building in Washington Heights, built in 1917 and currently owned by Sano Navarro. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent years, with multiple plumbing-related complaints, including an open basin/sink issue reported in April 2025 and violations related to ceiling paint/plaster conditions. The building has also faced challenges with fire safety systems, particularly self-closing doors in the hallways, with several violations issued in 2024 affecting multiple floors.
While heat and hot water systems have generated some complaints (mostly resolved), the building's infrastructure appears to require ongoing attention. The building's history shows consistent attention from both tenants and authorities regarding maintenance issues, with several emergency and non-emergency complaints being filed and addressed through HPD inspections. Notable past concerns include elevator system compliance (2020) and gas supply inspections (also 2020).
The property has maintained regular rodent inspection protocols, with recent inspections in 2023-2024 passing, though there were some documented rat activity issues in 2022. The building has demonstrated some compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing minimal infestation cases over the past five years. Two significant active violations related to exterior wall requirements (Cycle 8A and 9A reports) from 2021-2022 remain outstanding, with associated penalties.
