234 East 4th Street, Manhattan, NY 10009
234 East 4th Street is a 6-story, 28-unit residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Gail Weinstein and classified as a New Law Tenement. The building has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues, with multiple emergency complaints logged between 2019 and 2024, including building-wide outages in December 2023 and March 2024, as well as problems with water supply in March 2024. A boiler-related complaint in January 2023 marked as defective/inoperative was investigated but resulted in no violations.
The building's façade has been a significant concern, with multiple violations noted in 2021 for unsafe conditions and inadequate safety measures, resulting in an Environmental Control Board violation with a $25,000 penalty. These façade issues included reported cracks and inadequate protection measures, though these violations were subsequently resolved. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with zero reported incidents from 2018 through 2024.
Regular rodent inspections have been conducted, with passed results in 2023-2025, though there was one instance of rat activity noted in July 2021. The building has also undergone routine facade inspections under the LL11/98 program, with an unsafe notification issued in October 2021 that required attention. Multiple complaints regarding work without permits and safety violations were filed in 2020, but these were investigated and no violations were found at the time of inspection. The building's maintenance record shows relatively prompt responses to service requests, with most heating and water supply issues being addressed within a day or two of complaint filing.
