28 Henry Street, Manhattan, NY 10002
28 Henry Street is a 5-story, 20-unit tenement building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Nicolas Cosme. The property has experienced recurring water-related issues, with multiple heavy flow water leak complaints documented between 2022 and 2024, including a January 2024 incident in apartment 9 that resulted in violations. The building underwent construction work in late 2023 that generated dust-related health complaints in November 2023 and January 2024.
Apartment 9 has been a focal point for various maintenance issues, including multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations in 2022-2024 for problems ranging from pest infestations (mice and roaches) to ceiling damage and plaster issues. The building's compliance history shows multiple emergency complaints being filed and subsequently closed, some with violations and others requiring corrections. Notably, there is an active ECB violation from February 2023 regarding unauthorized occupancy at the building. The property has maintained regular rodent inspections, passing all inspections between 2019 and 2025, and there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the past six years.
Recent building data indicates ongoing maintenance issues, with the most recent complaints in 2024 involving a broken window guard and construction-related lead dust. The building has also faced several Department of Buildings complaints regarding work without permits and excessive debris, though most were found unsubstantiated upon inspection. While the building's infrastructure shows significant wear typical of a 125-year-old structure, particularly regarding water systems, the regular passing of rodent inspections and absence of bedbug issues suggest effective pest management. The property's recent maintenance pattern shows a mix of addressed and ongoing issues, particularly related to water damage and construction impacts, with violations typically receiving attention through the Housing Maintenance Code process.
