124 Mott Street, Manhattan, NY 10013
124 Mott Street is a 6-story, 39-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1912 and currently owned by Harry Chin. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems throughout 2024-2025, with multiple emergency complaints regarding entire building outages during January 2025. There have also been several electrical issues, including lighting problems and outlet/switch concerns, with multiple complaints showing the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) unable to gain access for inspections in several instances.
More recently, in early 2025, the building faced complaints regarding unsanitary conditions with pests and heavy water flow leaks, though these were reportedly addressed. The building's safety and maintenance record shows several areas of concern. A May 2023 inspection revealed multiple violations in Apartment 9, including issues with gas supply, carbon monoxide detectors, and smoke detectors. There are active Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations from 2023 regarding obstructed exit passageways and removal of safety measures, particularly concerning an unsafe façade condition noted in May 2023 with spalled brick and damaged stucco.
The building has a history of rat activity, with multiple inspections in 2022 showing this problem, though recent inspections in 2023 and 2024 passed. The bedbug report filings from 2021 through 2025 show no recorded infestations. While there were several violations related to boiler inspection filings between 2019-2023, these were subsequently dismissed. The building has also undergone Special Operations Compliance Inspections, with some resulting in Oath Violations.
