78 Ridge Street, Manhattan, NY 10002
The 6-story, 46-unit building at 78 Ridge Street in the Lower East Side, built in 1930 and currently owned by Eric Chong, has demonstrated generally responsible management over recent years, with several notable exceptions. Most concerning is an active violation as of December 2021 regarding the failure to display required energy efficiency scores. In terms of pest management, the building has maintained an impressive record, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past five annual filings (2020-2025), following a significant infestation of 46 units in 2018-2019.
The building has undergone regular rodent inspections in 2023-2025, all passing successfully. Recent property conditions have shown some issues with water management, including a standing water complaint in September 2023 and a pigeon waste complaint in March 2024, though both investigations found no violations. The building's management has also been responsive to health department communications, as evidenced by a 2019 complaint about an unleashed dog that triggered official warnings to the owner.
The property has shown diligence in complying with housing maintenance code requirements, as demonstrated by the timely filing of annual bedbug reports from 2020 to present. While there have been complaints about improper drainage (LL103/89) in 2023 and illegal hotel rooms in 2018, both investigations found no violations or insufficient information to pursue action. The building's permits include one issued in January 2020, though specific details of the work were not provided in the available data.
