69 West 106th Street, Manhattan

Resident-board condo carrying 10 open violations alongside commercial food venting and street noise within three blocks.

Upper West Side condo declaration managed by Newgent Management where basic building postings and open housing citations have lagged. Three things to know:

Basement self-closing doors and required hallway postings remain unaddressed. Ten open housing-code citations sit against the building, including 3 class C immediately hazardous violations issued in August 2023 for defective self-closing doors at the basement boiler room and entrance. The rest are Class A administrative items for missing posted notices regarding smoke detectors, gas leaks, and superintendent contact info.

Commercial food venting and indoor air quality calls concentrate on the block. Within three blocks, neighbors logged 16 food establishment complaints and 10 indoor air quality calls in the last 12 months. Commercial kitchen venting and air quality calls in dense blocks often bleed into residential risers or courtyard windows.

Street and residential noise dominate the surrounding three blocks. Within three blocks, residents logged 287 residential noise calls (mostly banging and loud music) and 272 street and sidewalk noise calls over the last 12 months. The street volume leans heavily toward loud music and late-night talking rather than traffic.

Quieter signals on this building and the blocks around it:

• 222 unsanitary condition calls within three blocks last year, dominated by 126 pest and 72 mold reports.
• 178 illegal parking complaints filed across the surrounding three blocks in the past 12 months.
• Last unit transfer logged in the condo declaration was a $648,000 unit sale in July 2022.
