381 East 10th Street, Manhattan, NY 10009

381 East 10th Street is a 5-story, 8-unit old law tenement building constructed in 1900, currently owned by 381 East 10 Preservationists Inc and located in the East Village neighborhood. The building has experienced several notable events regarding its maintenance and pest control history over the past several years. Most prominently, there has been a recurring issue with bedbug reporting requirements, with Housing Maintenance Code violations documented in 2022 through 2024 for failure to file annual bedbug reports, though recent filings from 2025 show consistent reporting of zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units.

The building faced a rodent issue in 2022, when a compliance inspection resulted in a failure due to rat activity. However, subsequent rodent inspections from 2022 through 2025 have shown consistent improvement, with all recent inspections passing, including a most recent inspection in April 2025. The building's complaint history includes a report from 2019 regarding illegal hotel rooms in residential buildings, though this complaint was closed with the inspector unable to gain access.

While the building has had several housing maintenance code violations - primarily related to bedbug reporting - there have been no documented violations of a nature that would directly impact resident safety. The property has shown improvement in pest management, with recent bedbug reports from 2025 indicating no infestations, and the failure to file bedbug reports has not recurred in recent years. The building's maintenance record, while showing some historical issues, suggests a trend toward improved compliance with health and safety requirements, particularly in the areas of pest control and rodent management.
