135 Reade Street, Manhattan, NY 10013

The two-family house at 135 Reade Street in Tribeca, owned by John Adams, has experienced several significant maintenance and inspection issues since 2018. Most notably, there is an active complaint as of June 2025 regarding failure to maintain property conditions, and there is an active violation from 2021 concerning improper support for window air conditioning units on the second and third floors, with a penalty of $2,500 imposed.

The building has a concerning history of rodent-related issues, with multiple complaints filed between 2019 and 2020, including five separate reports of "Rodents/Insects/Garbage" issues in early 2020 alone, and documented rat activity during inspections in March 2019 and March 2020. While the building underwent a period of inspections from 2011 to 2018 that consistently passed rodent inspections, the more recent years show a notable increase in pest-related complaints.

The property has also experienced an illegal conversion issue in 2021 that resulted in an Oath Violation being served, though records do not indicate the nature of this conversion. While there have been no bedbug infestations reported in the past four reporting periods (2021-2023), the building's overall maintenance history suggests ongoing property upkeep challenges. The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene has responded to multiple service requests related to food establishment conditions, which were all administratively closed, indicating that these issues were addressed even though they do reflect some historical concerns about building maintenance.
