179 Rivington Street, Manhattan, NY 10002

Located in New York City's Lower East Side, 179 Rivington Street is a 5-story, 6-unit Class A residential building constructed in 2003, currently owned by Paul Castrucci. The building has experienced two recurring issues with its bedbug reporting compliance, with open violations noted in both 2023 and 2024 for failing to file the required annual bedbug report, though previous filings between 2019 and 2021 showed no documented infestations.

The property has also encountered challenges with required inspections, most notably an active violation as of June 2023 related to the failure to file a 2018 external low-pressure inspection report, following a dismissed violation in 2019 for not submitting the 2017 boiler inspection report. Despite these compliance issues, the building has maintained generally good hygiene standards as evidenced by its rodent inspection results, passing all inspections in 2024 and 2025, with the exception of a single "Rat Activity" result in October 2023.

Historical data shows consistent attention to rodent control, with passed inspections dating back to 2020. The building's permit history shows two permits issued on May 6, 2019, for alteration and exterior window work, suggesting regular maintenance activities have been conducted. While the building has had some violations requiring attention, particularly regarding inspection report compliance, the overall record indicates systematic efforts to maintain building standards, with most recent inspections showing improved compliance in various areas.
