299 East 10th Street, Manhattan, NY 10009

299 East 10th Street is a historic four-story, four-unit Old Law Tenement building located in the East Village, built in 1846 and currently owned by Janice Keller-Mcdowall. The building has experienced recurring administrative issues with bedbug reporting compliance, receiving three consecutive violations from 2022-2024 for failing to file annual bedbug reports as required by the Housing Maintenance Code.

However, recent documentation shows that the property has maintained a clean record in terms of actual bedbug infestations, with the most recent 2025 report showing no infested units or eradicated cases. The building has also faced some maintenance and safety challenges in the past, particularly in 2019 when there were complaints about building shaking and concerns about structural stability, though these issues were ultimately resolved with no violations found upon inspection.

A notable violation from 2019 related to compromised rear yard infrastructure due to a fire at the adjacent property (301 East 10th Street) was dismissed the following year after a vacate order was fully rescinded. Recent inspections have shown consistent rodent control compliance, with only one instance of rat activity reported in February 2025, though this was subsequently followed by a passing compliance inspection in April 2025. The building's maintenance record indicates regular attention to pest control and compliance requirements, with the most recent inspections in 2025 showing improved adherence to reporting requirements and a focus on maintaining a pest-free environment for residents.
