192 East 3rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10009

192 East 3rd Street is a 5-story, 20-unit Old Law Tenement building located in the East Village, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by 192 East 3 Realty, LLC. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with eight documented complaints between 2021 and 2025, including two recent emergency complaints in April 2025 that HPD was unable to inspect due to access issues.

Water-related problems have also persisted, with multiple leak complaints between 2019 and 2024, including both heavy flow and slow leaks, though no violations were issued following HPD inspections. The building's maintenance record shows attention to pest control, with regular rodent inspections passing in 2023 and 2024, though there were documented rat sightings in 2022 and inspection failures related to rat activity in 2023. The property has maintained a consistent bedbug-free record since 2020, with annual reports showing zero infested or re-infested units.

Safety concerns have been documented in various violations, including two open citations from 2013 related to apartment 1C concerning fire egress, mice infestation, and wall repairs, and a carbon monoxide detector requirement from 2009 in apartment 2D. The building's violation history shows periodic issues requiring attention to self-closing doors (notably in apartments 2D and 5A), with some historical complaints about vermin and rubbish accumulation in common areas being resolved. Recent Department of Buildings violations from 2019 and 2023 related to boiler inspection filing requirements were dismissed, though compliance with building codes and maintenance of common areas consistently requires attention to minimize resident impact.
