92 Reade Street, Manhattan, NY 10013

The 5-story, 4-unit building at 92 Reade Street in Tribeca, built in 1878 and currently owned by Robert Moskowitz, has experienced several notable issues over the past few years. Most concerning is an active building violation from May 2025 regarding structural issues, specifically spalling and cracked stucco on the building's Church Street facade. This violation requires the owner to retain a licensed engineer to assess the building's structural stability and prepare repair plans, with mandated repairs to begin by June 29, 2025, and be completed by July 29, 2025.

In 2020, multiple complaints were filed regarding inadequate or no heat in non-residential spaces, resulting in warning letters from the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. While the building has maintained a clean record in terms of bedbug infestations and passed all rodent inspections between 2010 and 2018, the recent structural violation represents the most significant building safety concern in recent years. The property has a history of active permit issuance, particularly between 2019 and 2020, with multiple permits issued for various work, including electrical and plumbing projects.

Two illegal activity complaints were filed in mid-2019, though inspections found no violations at that time. A failure to maintain violation was recorded and closed in June 2025, which may be related to the current active building violation. The building's maintenance record shows regular compliance with bedbug regulations, with all annual filings indicating zero infested units. The comprehensive permit history suggests ongoing maintenance and improvement work, though the recent structural violation indicates a potentially significant maintenance backlog or emerging building systems issue.
