East Broadway, Manhattan, NY 10002

The 10-unit, 4-story residential building at East Broadway in the Lower East Side, constructed in 2017 and currently owned by 201 KV PARTNERS II LLC, has experienced several notable compliance issues since its completion. Most concerning are the active violations related to failure to file mandatory external low-pressure inspections for six consecutive years (2018-2023), which were issued between 2023-2024.

In September 2022, the building was found to have standing water issues at the foundation level, resulting in a summons from DOHMH requiring follow-up inspections. The property has been subject to multiple Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints and violations, with recurring issues between 2021-2023. These include three separate CSE Sweep complaints in 2023 (April and March) where Oath Violations were served, and previous CSE compliance tracking and sidewalk shed violations in 2021 that also resulted in Oath Violations.

Of particular note is a March 2021 complaint regarding an inadequate or defective sidewalk shed/scaffold, which suggests potential safety concerns. The building's inspection history shows a mix of violations and no-violation findings, including a construction-related Stop Work Order issued in March 2020 due to construction superintendent withdrawal, and a failure to certify correction on an immediately hazardous ECB violation in February 2020. While some violations from 2021 were dismissed or found to have no warrant for violation upon inspection, the pattern of inspection-related violations and recent failure to maintain proper pressure system documentation raises concerns about the building's maintenance oversight.
