35 Mercer Street, Manhattan, NY 10013

35 Mercer Street is a 5-story, 6-unit joint residential/artists building located in SoHo, built in 1867 and currently owned by Divya Rashad. The building has undergone regular inspections and maintenance, with particularly close oversight in recent years. From October 2023 through January 2024, the building underwent multiple tenant safety inspections, all of which were found to have no violations at the time of inspection, with one compliance inspection performed in October 2023.

In early 2020, there was one incident of an oath violation related to work notification requirements, resulting in a $625 penalty, though this was resolved. The building has maintained an excellent record regarding pest control, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past seven years, as evidenced by recent bedbug reports from December 2024 through 2021 showing zero infested or eradicated units. A consistent pattern of rodent inspection success is also evident, with all inspections from 2010 through 2024 passing without issue.

The building's permit history shows regular maintenance and oversight, with several emergency work permits issued between 2019 and 2021. While there have been two Department of Buildings violations recorded in 2022 and 2024, both were dismissed, and another violation from 2020 was resolved based on subsequent inspections showing defects had been corrected. The building appears to be well-maintained, with proactive management ensuring compliance with safety regulations and prompt resolution of any issues that arise. The property has demonstrated strong compliance with local health and safety regulations, particularly concerning pest control and safety inspections, making it one of the better-maintained buildings in its class within the SoHo neighborhood.
