534 East 6th Street, Manhattan, NY 10009

534 East 6th Street is a 5-story, 8-unit residential tenement building located in New York City's East Village, owned by Adam Daniels and constructed in 1900. The building has undergone extensive inspections and received multiple violations over the past five years, with the most significant issues occurring in 2020 when multiple violations were documented regarding safety requirements for smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and flammable materials throughout the public hallways on all floors.

The building also had violations related to bedbug reporting requirements in 2021, 2022, and 2023, though recent bedbug reports from 2023-2024 show no infested units. A concerning incident occurred in May 2021 when a complaint regarding illegal hotel rooms in the building was filed, though inspectors reported insufficient information to confirm the issue. More recently, the building has shown consistent attention to rodent control, with regular inspections throughout 2022 to 2025 demonstrating either passed inspections or successful resolution of issues (though there was one failed inspection in July 2023 for "Other Reasons").

The most recent rodent inspection in July 2025 passed, continuing a trend of better pest management compliance. The building's maintenance record indicates ongoing attention to various safety requirements, with some violations remaining open as recently as 2020, particularly regarding the posting of required safety notices about smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and the availability of housing information guides. While some of the earlier violations were classified as Class C (indicating a more severe concern), the building's more recent history shows improved compliance with health and safety requirements, particularly regarding rodent control and bedbug reporting.
