The 21-unit, 5-story brick building at 47 West 175th Street in Morris Heights, owned by Christina Pimentel and constructed in 1923, has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues in recent years, particularly in terms of heating systems and pest management. Between December 2024 and June 2025, there were multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water problems affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, with emergency complaints filed through HPD. The building has also faced recurring pest issues, with unsanitary conditions related to pests reported in 2025.
In December 2024, several Housing Maintenance Code violations were documented regarding door security and maintenance, including defective self-closing doors and safety concerns about the roof access door. The elevator system has been a significant ongoing concern, with multiple complaints about single-device service and malfunction between 2021 and 2023. The building's elevator maintenance history shows several violations, including inoperability and safety issues, with penalties imposed.
Recent rodent inspections indicate fluctuating conditions, with rat activity detected in late 2024 and 2023, though a passing inspection was recorded in April 2025. The building has a consistent record of no documented bedbug infestations over the past six reporting periods. While some maintenance issues have been addressed, as evidenced by the closure of several violations, the frequency and variety of complaints suggest ongoing challenges with building systems and maintenance responsiveness.
