Daniel Ohebshalom is considered one of the worst landlords in New York City, according to Public Advocate Jumaane Williams. And now there’s a warrant out for his arrest. Ohebshalom owns the buildings at 705 and 709 West 170th Street in Washington Heights, and between the two buildings, he has racked up nearly 700 violations with the city for not making court-ordered repairs to the buildings’ 42 apartments and/or showing up to court since 2021.
"Ohebshalom is accused of not responding to residents' complaints about roach and rat infestations, lead, mold, leaks, collapsing ceilings, and not turning on the heat during winter. He faces up to months at Rikers Island, but authorities have not been able to locate him to arrest him. There is a $3 million penalty he's going to have to pay.
