337 East 10th Street, Manhattan, NY 10009

337 East 10th Street is a five-story, 8-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Manhattan's East Village, constructed in 1860 and currently owned by Arik Lifshitz. The building has a concerning history of food safety incidents, with multiple reports of food poisoning between 2018 and 2024, including a notable cluster of three or more cases in March 2024. Additionally, there was a food safety complaint in 2020 regarding foreign objects in food.

These incidents were investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, though most were determined to be isolated cases or were otherwise resolved. In late 2018, there was a complaint regarding an illegal conversion of commercial space to dwelling units, but no violations were found upon inspection. On a positive note, the building has maintained excellent pest control records over the past five years, with no reported cases of bedbug infestations between 2019 and 2024, as confirmed by the annual bedbug filing requirements.

Furthermore, recent rodent inspections conducted between 2022 and 2025 have consistently resulted in "Passed" ratings, indicating effective pest management. The most recent rodent inspection in February 2025 continues this trend of compliance. The building's records show regular inspections and prompt reporting of issues, though the history of food safety complaints suggests ongoing attention may be required in this area. During the past five years, while there have been periodic complaints and inspection needs, there are no current violations or major safety concerns on record, and all reported issues have been addressed through appropriate channels.
