424 Greenwich Street, Manhattan, NY 10013

424 Greenwich Street is a 7-story, 10-unit commercial altered Class A building located in Tribeca, constructed in 1892 and currently owned by 68 Laight Street Owners Corp. The building has experienced several concerning issues in recent years, with the most significant being multiple violations related to building safety and maintenance. In 2022, there were complaints about a rat sighting that resulted in health department violations requiring follow-up inspections, though a subsequent 2023 inspection passed.

The building has faced persistent water-related issues, with multiple violations documented in 2019 regarding leaks affecting ceilings in various public hallways on the 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th floors, as well as problems with fire protection materials in the 7th-story stairway. More recently, in 2023, the building received violations for failing to file annual bedbug reports and external low-pressure inspections, which remain active. The property has documented concerns about structural stability, evidenced by two building shaking/vibrating complaints in 2021, both resulting in OATH violations being served.

Building maintenance issues have been a recurring theme, with multiple ECB violations between 2018-2022 regarding exterior walls and parapet maintenance, including spalled brick and damaged mortar joints. The building's safety systems have faced scrutiny, with 2022 complaints regarding fire escape conditions and window guard issues, though inspections did not result in violations. While the building has maintained an active bedbug prevention and reporting program with no reported infestations since 2018, the recent violations regarding inspection filings suggest some lapses in regulatory compliance.
