172 Delancey Street, Manhattan, NY 10002
172 Delancey Street is a 12-unit, 6-story Old Law Tenement building located in Manhattan's Lower East Side, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Iris Seda. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, most notably a cluster of complaints in December 2024 regarding unsanitary conditions (specifically mold), problems with an electric/gas range, and radiator issues, all of which resulted in emergency Housing Maintenance Code complaints. In 2024, there was also a brief incident of heat and hot water loss in one apartment, though this was reportedly resolved quickly.
The building has outstanding violations related to bedbug reporting requirements from 2021 and 2023 inspections, and two active Environmental Control Board violations from 2020-2021 concerning boiler maintenance and compliance signage, with associated penalties of $1,280 and $655 respectively. The property has a mixed record of pest control compliance, with rodent inspections showing generally good results in recent years, though there were two failures noted in 2024 and 2022. Historical records show previous concerns about plumbing and boiler issues in 2020 and 2021, which resulted in Oath Violations being served.
Public health complaints related to food establishments were recorded in December 2019 but were administratively closed after investigation. The building appears to have regular inspection requirements, including for bedbugs and rodent control, and while most violations have been addressed, several open issues remain, particularly regarding bedbug reporting compliance. Recent attempts by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development to inspect the building in response to complaints were unable to be completed, suggesting potential access issues that may require tenants to file new service requests if problems persist.
