225 East 2nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10009
The 4-story, 10-unit tenement building at 225 East 2nd Street, owned by Eli Klein, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues since 2021. Most notably, as of September 2023, there are three open Class A violations related to safety requirements: failure to properly post carbon monoxide detector requirements, incomplete gas leak procedure notifications, and improper display of inspection certificates in common areas. In December 2022, the building faced serious structural concerns when a partial vacate order was issued for the roof and rear yard due to hazardous conditions linked to the building's wall structure, which remains an open violation as of this report.
While the building had some pest control challenges in 2021 with documented rat activity and bait applications, more recent rodent inspections from 2022-2025 have consistently passed. The building's maintenance history shows both recurring issues and some areas of improvement. The property has maintained an active bedbug reporting requirement since 2019, with no reported infestations in the last two filing periods (2022-2023 and 2019-2020).
Regular rodent inspections have shown consistent compliance since 2022, with the most recent inspection in May 2025 passing. A paint/plaster complaint from 2022-2023 was investigated by HPD but resulted in no violations being issued. The building's management has generally responded to violations, as evidenced by numerous cases being closed, though some safety-related violations from 2023 remain open.
