Questions about this building

Does 107 West 97 Street, Manhattan have open violations?

Yes. 107 West 97 Street, Manhattan had 25 open violations on October 10, 2026: 19 from HPD and 6 from OATH/ECB. 1 is Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous. The oldest open HPD violation has been open 5 years, since October 6, 2021.

Is 107 West 97 Street, Manhattan getting better or worse?

Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 1 open Class C, with nothing filed or new in the last 180 days. That window ends October 10, 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 107 West 97 Street, Manhattan?

Since October 12, 2023, a certification was filed on 1 Class C violation, by 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.

Does 107 West 97 Street, Manhattan have an OATH hearing coming up?

Yes. 4 hearings scheduled on DOB summonses, the first on October 15, 2026. DOB summonses are heard at OATH, the city's hearings office, and OATH can move a hearing to a later date. When nobody shows up, the summons is decided by default, the costliest way one ends.

Does 107 West 97 Street, Manhattan have active DOB violations?

Yes. 3 active DOB violations. The newest was issued December 1, 2024. The Department of Buildings writes these separately from HPD's housing violations, for things like boilers, elevators, facades, construction and energy filings. Each one stays active until DOB resolves or dismisses it.

Has DOB received complaints about 107 West 97 Street, Manhattan?

Yes. 9 DOB complaints in the 12 months to September 25, 2026. The newest was filed August 28, 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.

What did the latest facade report find at 107 West 97 Street, Manhattan?

Rated Unsafe in the latest facade report, filed February 21, 2024 (inspection cycle 9). Reports in earlier inspection cycles rated it Unsafe in 2007 and 2013, Safe in 2016, and SWARMP in 2019. SWARMP means safe with a repair and maintenance program. Buildings taller than six stories must have their exterior walls inspected once in every inspection cycle under the city's Facade Inspection Safety Program (every five years under DOB's current rule), and each inspection report is filed with DOB as Safe, SWARMP (safe with a repair and maintenance program) or Unsafe. No Report Filed means DOB has no report for that cycle. The rating is from the latest filing and does not describe the facade today; DOB's page for the building shows anything filed since.

Are any DOB work permits in effect at 107 West 97 Street, Manhattan?

Yes. 2 DOB work permits in effect. The latest, for Sidewalk Shed work, was issued August 12, 2026. A permit in effect allows the work it names. It does not mean the work has started or finished, or that it fixes any violation on this page.

What is the ENERGY STAR score for 107 West 97 Street, Manhattan?

ENERGY STAR score 53 for 2024, against a median of 67 for Multifamily Housing that year. Buildings over 25,000 square feet report their energy use to the city every year under Local Law 84. The ENERGY STAR score runs from 1 to 100 and compares a building with similar ones nationwide; 50 is the national median. The score is the one the city publishes, and this page never estimates a Local Law 97 emissions penalty. A lot that reported several properties in one year is not scored here.

When was the boiler at 107 West 97 Street, Manhattan last inspected?

It has 2 boilers, both inspected in 2026, the latest on April 2. DOB requires a boiler in a building with 6 or more apartments to be inspected once every calendar year, with the report filed within 14 days of the inspection. Low-pressure boilers in residential buildings with 5 or fewer apartments are exempt.

Is 107 West 97 Street, Manhattan covered by Local Law 97?

Yes. It is on DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list. Covered since 2024 (DOB's list, March 1, 2026). Local Law 97 sets greenhouse gas limits for most New York City buildings over 25,000 square feet, and DOB's covered buildings list says which path each building is on. The list reflects DOB's records, which owners can ask DOB to correct. This page never estimates a penalty or says whether a building complies.

When was 107 West 97 Street, Manhattan built?

The city's record gives 1950 as the year 107 West 97 Street, Manhattan was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as an elevator building with 16 floors.

How many apartments does 107 West 97 Street, Manhattan have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 287 residential units at 107 West 97 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 OATH hearing dates, OATH/ECB summonses from DOB and FDNY, DOB violations, DOB complaints, DOB facade filings, DOB NOW work permits, Local Law 84 energy reports, DOB boiler inspection reports, DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list, the city's PLUTO tax-lot file and DOF's property sales records. This page is current through October 10, 2026. The city's data changes daily, so a violation certified after that can still show as open here; the city's own records are the authority on what is open today.

Sources. HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, plus OATH hearing dates, OATH/ECB summonses from DOB and FDNY, DOB violations, DOB complaints, DOB facade filings, DOB NOW work permits, Local Law 84 energy reports, DOB boiler inspection reports, DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list, the city's PLUTO tax-lot file and DOF's property sales records. 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.
