Yes. 125 West 142 Street, Manhattan had 52 open violations on September 27, 2026: 52 from HPD. 25 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous. The oldest open HPD violation has been open 31 years, since March 21, 1995.

Is 125 West 142 Street, Manhattan getting better or worse?

Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 25 open Class C, with nothing filed or new in the last 180 days. That window ends September 27, 2026. It compares certifications filed with new Class C violations, and it describes what happened, not what anyone intends.

When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 125 West 142 Street, Manhattan?

Since September 29, 2023, certifications were filed on 12 Class C violations, all 12 after the original certify-by date. A certification is the filing, dated when it was made, not HPD's acceptance of it. It is compared with the original certify-by date on the notice. A granted postponement moves that date and the city's data keeps only the first, so a certification counted after it may still have met a postponed date.

Is 125 West 142 Street, Manhattan in housing court?

Yes. 1 open housing court case, opened January 27, 2025. HPD takes buildings to housing court to get violations fixed and heat and hot water restored, and it joins tenants' own repair cases, called tenant actions. A case stays open until the court closes it.

Has DOB received complaints about 125 West 142 Street, Manhattan?

Yes. 3 DOB complaints in the 12 months to September 25, 2026. The newest was filed January 31, 2026. Anyone can complain to DOB about a building or the work going on in it, and DOB then inspects and decides whether there is a violation. A conversion complaint says an apartment may have been added or changed without approval. It is a complaint, not a finding.

Are any HPD emergency repair orders at 125 West 142 Street, Manhattan marked completed?

Yes. 2 completed HPD emergency repair orders since September 29, 2023, awarded for $1,380 in total. The most recent of the 2, a heat and hot water order, was opened November 10, 2025. HPD orders an emergency repair when a hazardous condition cited in a violation, or in another agency's emergency order, is not corrected, and does the work itself or through a contractor. The amounts are what the orders were awarded for, not a bill: this page does not show what was charged to the property or whether it was paid. Orders for lab tests, such as dust-wipe and asbestos samples, are not counted.

When was the boiler at 125 West 142 Street, Manhattan last inspected?

Is 125 West 142 Street, Manhattan rent stabilized?

How many apartments does 125 West 142 Street, Manhattan have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 18 residential units at 125 West 142 Street, Manhattan. The count is for the whole tax lot.

Where do these numbers come from?

From New York City's own data: HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, read whole rather than sampled. It also draws on HPD's housing court cases, DOB complaints, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, HPD emergency repair orders, DOB boiler inspection reports, HPD's annual bedbug reports and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. This page is current through September 27, 2026. The city's data changes daily, so a violation certified after that can still show as open here; the city's own page for this building is linked above.

Sources. HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, plus HPD's housing court cases, DOB complaints, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, HPD emergency repair orders, DOB boiler inspection reports, HPD's annual bedbug reports and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. Counts cover HPD Class B and C violations from the last 3 years that HPD still shows open, and OATH/ECB summonses from the same 3 years that the city still shows active. The city's own pages can show more, never fewer.
