73 Mott Street, Manhattan, NY 10013
The five-story, 16-unit tenement building at 73 Mott Street, owned by Jose Rodriguez and built in 1915, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues in recent years, most notably in November 2024. During a cluster of complaints in November 2024, violations were issued related to smoke and carbon monoxide detector deficiencies, unsanitary pest conditions, plumbing issues in sinks and bathtubs, and an unresponsive heat/hot water complaint.
The building underwent inspections on November 11, 2024, resulting in violations for defective smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, leaky sink pipes, pest infestation (specifically roaches) in Apartment 3, and a nuisance involving a box door covering the building entrance. The building has also faced some systemic maintenance challenges, with a history of heat/hot water issues documented in February 2020 and violations for failing to file external low-pressure inspections in 2018 and 2019, though these were later dismissed in April 2025. Despite these issues, the building has maintained a relatively clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all four annual reports (2019-2025) showing zero infested or re-infested units.
Recent rodent inspections conducted throughout 2022-2025 have consistently passed, indicating effective pest management in this area. The Department of Buildings has recorded two complaints: one in 2019 regarding debris/possible falling hazards (which passed inspection) and another in 2023 for work without a permit, which was referred to the Department of Consumer Affairs. While the building has experienced several safety and maintenance issues, it has shown some commitment to addressing them, as evidenced by the certification of violations from November 2024 in December 2024, though some issues have required multiple complaints for resolution.
