310 East 4th Street, Manhattan, NY 10009

The six-story, 16-unit residential building at 310 East 4th Street in the East Village, owned by Trudy Silver and constructed in 1939, has experienced a range of maintenance and regulatory issues in recent years. Most notably, there are several active violations related to the building facade, with inspections in 2023 and 2025 documenting cracked and spalling stone and brickwork affecting all floors from the ground to the roof. The building's elevator system has been a recurring concern, with multiple violations between 2018-2021 regarding maintenance issues, including an active violation from 2020 related to oil leaks and damage to traveler insulation.

Recent inspections in April 2025 documented building shaking concerns and multiple emergency and non-emergency maintenance issues were reported and addressed between 2025-2023, including problems with doors, windows, plumbing, and various interior finishes. The property has faced ongoing challenges with building systems and environmental conditions. Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2023 show multiple problems in apartment 2A, including issues with radiators, window mechanisms, and plumbing fixtures.

The building's pest control history shows some concerning patterns, with multiple pest-related violations in 2020 and recent non-emergency pest complaints in 2025. While recent rodent inspections have generally passed, the building's maintenance record shows a pattern of recurring maintenance issues that require attention. The facade maintenance violations, in particular, stand out as a significant ongoing concern that requires monitoring. The building has demonstrated some responsiveness to issues, as evidenced by multiple closed violations and complaints, but the persistence of certain issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges.
