405 Broadway, Manhattan, NY 10013

The 5-story, 3-unit commercial building at 405 Broadway in Tribeca, owned by Rafi Gibly and constructed in 1854, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years. Most notably, in October 2022, there was a series of heat and hot water problems affecting multiple apartments, along with electrical power outages, which generated multiple complaints across various agencies including HPD. These incidents resulted in numerous emergency and immediate complaints, though inspections generally found no violations warranting penalties.

More recently, in August 2024, the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene investigated a food poisoning complaint, determining it to be an isolated incident. The building has a history of various maintenance violations and issues, particularly in 2022, when problems were documented with garbage storage, heating systems, and building safety features. Violations from September 2022 included mold issues, door problems, and heating system access concerns, though these were ultimately certified as corrected by October 2022. The property appears to have no current bedbug infestation issues, as evidenced by multiple consecutive reports from 2022 through 2025 showing zero affected units.

Additionally, rodent inspections from 2010 through 2018 consistently passed, indicating no significant pest control problems. While there are two active DOB violations noted (from 2019 and 2020), the specifics are not detailed in the available records. The building's bedbug reporting history from 2020 through 2025 consistently shows zero infested units, and recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 have not indicated any significant new issues. The most recent documented complaints and violations have generally been addressed promptly, and the building's overall maintenance record has shown improvement in recent years, with no new heat/hot water complaints since the 2022 incidents and consistently passing rodent inspections.
