505 Grand Street, Manhattan, NY 10002

505 Grand Street is a three-story, two-family house built in 1910 and currently owned by Joel Radmin, located in New York City's Lower East Side neighborhood. The building has experienced several concerning issues over the past two years, with the most recent being an indoor air quality complaint related to ventilation in March 2025, which resulted in an advisory to the property owner.

A significant cluster of complaints occurred in early 2024, particularly during February, when multiple issues related to heat, hot water, and cooking gas were reported. During this period, multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding inadequate heat and hot water throughout the entire building, with at least eight separate incidents reported between January 30 and February 15, 2024, some of which resulted in documented violations. The building also had an apartment-specific heat/hot water complaint in February 2024, though access for inspection was restricted.

Additional health concerns were raised in October 2024 regarding rodent attraction conditions, which resulted in violations requiring follow-up inspections. Despite these various issues, it's notable that the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all annual reports from 2020 through 2024 showing zero infested dwelling units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units. The property has demonstrated some resilience in maintaining this specific aspect of building hygiene, as evidenced by consistent bedbug reporting compliance with no detected infestations over multiple reporting periods.
