290 East 3rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10009
290 East 3rd Street is a 53-unit, 6-story residential building located in the East Village, constructed in 2005 and currently owned by Josephine Lume. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints filed in 2022, 2024, and early 2025, though most were not able to be verified due to lack of access during inspections. More recently, in June 2025, there were complaints regarding window frames and ventilation issues.
The building has also faced some maintenance challenges, including the presence of mold (identified in late 2023), and problems with self-closing doors that were documented in 2023-2024 inspections in multiple apartments (3D, 5A, 5H, and 6H), though these violations have since been closed. Both plumbing and unsanitary conditions have been noted in various inspection reports, including issues with garbage/recycling storage and pest control in 2022. The property has undergone several rodent inspections between 2020-2025, with the most recent inspections in 2024 and early 2025 showing compliance (though there was one instance of rat activity noted in 2020).
Bedbug reports from 2021-2024 indicate minimal infestation issues, with only two units affected during this period, both of which were treated and resolved. The building's elevator system has been a recurring concern, with seven complaints filed between 2021 and 2024 regarding lack of alternate service, though inspections typically found no violations. While housing maintenance code violations were noted in 2023-2024 regarding self-closing doors and mold conditions, most historical violations have been closed or dismissed. The property has maintained compliance with annual rodent inspections, with all recent inspections passing, and the most recent bedbug reports (2023-2024) showing no significant infestations.
