434 Greenwich Street, Manhattan, NY 10013

This 7-story, 10-unit residential building located at 434 Greenwich Street in Tribeca, owned by Martin Kremenstein, was constructed in 1884 and has undergone conversion to Class A status. The building has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over the past five years, with the most concerning being an active 2020 ECB violation related to elevator safety monitoring that remains unresolved as of 2021, along with multiple façade maintenance violations from 2021 detailing cracks above windows on the north elevation at various floor levels.

The Department of Buildings records show recurring problems with ventilation systems in 2019, though inspectors were unable to gain access during multiple inspection attempts. A closed complaint from 2022 regarding sidewalk shed conditions was found to have no violations. The building has maintained a relatively clean record with respect to pest control, showing no reported bedbug infestations in the past seven reporting periods from 2019 to 2024.

However, there have been two documented instances of rodent activity in late 2021, following a period of consistently passing rodent inspections from 2010 to 2018. The building's management has demonstrated some responsiveness to violations, as evidenced by resolving multiple façade and masonry issues that carried penalties, though there remain several outstanding violations related to elevator safety and building maintenance. The most recent permits on record date back to 2020, suggesting limited recent construction activity, and there are currently no active ECB violations with overdue penalties.
