250 East 4th Street, Manhattan, NY 10009

250 East 4th Street is a six-story, 34-unit Old Law tenement building constructed in 1900, currently owned by 250-254 East 4th St Lp and located in the East Village neighborhood of Manhattan. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water over the past year, with four separate complaints between March 2025 and February 2025, though heat and hot water were reportedly restored during inspections in most cases. More recent concerns include a plumbing water supply issue from March 2025 that HPD could not inspect upon their visit.

The building has documented several maintenance violations, primarily affecting apartment 3F, including problems with bathroom tiles, cabinet repairs, and a defective bathtub surface, though these were certified as corrected by December 2024. A notable ongoing issue appears to be related to pests, with open violations from November 2024 regarding roach infestation in apartment 6D, alongside a general pest complaint from November 2024 that resulted in violations being issued, though the building's bedbug reports from 2022 to 2025 show no infested units. The property has undergone regular inspections for rodent control, passing all inspections except for a failure noted in December 2024.

Recent building complaints show a pattern of service requests where HPD was unable to complete inspections or gain access to units, particularly for electrical and plumbing issues. The building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, consistently reporting zero infested units in recent filings. Records also show two complaints in July 2024 regarding maintenance and retaining wall safety, though both were inspected and found to have no violations or required compliance.
