829 West 181st Street, Manhattan, NY 10033
The 6-story, 79-unit New Law Tenement building at 829 West 181st Street in Washington Heights, owned by Charles Fisch, has been experiencing recurring issues with heating and hot water systems over the past two years. Between late 2023 and 2025, there have been seven documented complaints about building-wide heat and hot water problems, most of which resulted in the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) being unable to gain access for inspection.
The building has also faced food safety concerns, with multiple complaints to the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) in 2024-2025 regarding food contamination and food poisoning incidents, including one complaint currently marked as "In Progress" as of July 2025. Recent records show some infrastructure maintenance activity, including permit issuances in late 2023 and early 2025, though specific work details are not provided in the available data. The building's maintenance history reveals past violations related to fire safety and building systems, including issues with fire retardant materials, roof leaks, and various safety sign requirements identified during inspections from 2018-2022.
A significant violation was issued in September 2020 regarding multiple boiler-related concerns, including leaks and improper support for flue materials, which resulted in a $655 penalty. While there have been documented rodent inspections showing mixed results between 2018 and 2024, with the most recent inspection in October 2024 passing, the building has maintained a consistent record of addressing bedbug infestations where they occurred, with three incidents reported between 2022-2024, all involving successful eradication. The property's history includes multiple COVID-19 related complaints between 2020-2022, though all were found with "No Violation Warranted" upon inspection.
