105 Madison Street, Manhattan, NY 10002

The five-story, 8-unit tenement at 105 Madison Street in the Two Bridges neighborhood has been under the ownership of John Tom since its 1900 construction. A significant cluster of housing maintenance issues emerged in July 2018, with multiple emergency and non-emergency complaints filed on the same day, including concerns about carbon monoxide detectors, door issues, water leaks, and various paint/plaster problems affecting both ceilings and walls.

These issues were all officially closed within three days of their reporting. More recently, the building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent filings (2024 and 2025) showing zero infested units, and previous records dating back to 2019 confirming no infestations during those periods. The building has undergone regular rodent inspections, with consistent passing results between 2020 and 2025, with the exception of one failed inspection in September 2023.

While this indicates generally good pest management practices, the failed inspection suggests there may have been some temporary issues that were likely resolved quickly, as evidenced by subsequent passing inspections. The property has also received two Class A violations in 2022 and 2023 related to bedbug reporting requirements, though these were subsequently addressed as indicated by the most recent filings. The building's maintenance record shows regular oversight and prompts attention to safety matters, particularly when considering the rapid response to the July 2018 emergency complaints, though the age of the building and nature of the reported issues suggest ongoing maintenance challenges are to be expected.
