82 Madison Street, Manhattan, NY 10002

82 Madison Street is a 6-story, 16-unit residential tenement building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Herbert Yan. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, particularly evident in late 2020 when multiple complaints were filed regarding lack of service throughout the entire building. More recently, in May 2023, there was a water leak incident involving heavy flow, though no violations were issued following the HPD inspection.

Inspection records reveal several safety concerns in 2021, including blocked fire escapes and missing safety signs, resulting in multiple violations. The property has maintained a consistent record of compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2021-2024, showing no instances of infestation during these periods. The building's maintenance history shows periodic rodent activity, with the most recent inspections in 2025, 2024, and 2023 passing, though there was documented rat activity in late 2023 and early 2024.

Violation records indicate some historical issues with building management compliance, particularly in 2021 when there were multiple Environmental Control Board violations related to emergency exit passageways and fire escape access. As of 2023, there are active violations regarding the failure to file 2020 external low-pressure inspection results. The building's infrastructure and maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic systems such as heating and water supply, though recent rodent inspections indicate improved pest management.
