865 West End Avenue, Manhattan

    Elevator service disruptions and targeted unit plaster violations define the active record for this West End Avenue building.

    This 1925 pre-war rental holds 77 apartments on West End Avenue. Active maintenance calls are concentrated around vertical transit, specific unit plaster repairs, and food-establishment venting nearby. Three things to know:

    Elevator service experiences recurring disruption. 13 elevator complaints sit on file over the past five years, with six separate calls logged between April and September 2026. The issue remains active with an open call logged on September 1, 2026.

    Open violations concentrate in specific apartments rather than building-wide systems. 23 housing-code violations remain open, but 12 stem from an inspection sweep of apartment 7E in April and May 2024 covering plaster, paint, and carbon monoxide detectors. Another three open items sit in apartment 11C from March 2025.

    Nearby food establishment venting creates potential odor transfer for adjacent units. 13 food establishment complaints were logged within three blocks over the trailing 12 months, running through September 15, 2026. Kitchen exhausts and food service venting near the property line can push odors into lower-floor units and shared shafts.
