422 East 10th Street, Manhattan, NY 10009

The 11-unit, 6-story residential building at 422 East 10th Street in the East Village, owned by Anna Shapiro and completed in 2003, has experienced several notable maintenance and safety issues over its tenure. Most concerning is the building's elevator system, which has encountered persistent problems, with two active violations as of 2019 related to failure to correct defects from a 2017 Category 1 inspection/test.

The building's bedbug reporting record has shown consistent compliance since 2021, with no infested or eradicated units reported in the past four years, though a violation was issued in 2021 regarding late annual bedbug report filing that was subsequently resolved. The property has maintained regular rodent inspections, passing consistently from 2021 through 2025, with the exception of two inspections in 2020 (July and September) that recorded rat activity.

Additionally, there are two active Department of Buildings violations from 2019: one regarding failure to perform a required Category 5 inspection and another concerning elevator defects. A cease use violation from 2020 was resolved. Despite the building's relatively young age, these maintenance issues, particularly regarding the elevator system, represent ongoing challenges for residents, though the recent record shows significant improvement in both pest and rodent control management.
