510 East 13th Street, Manhattan, NY 10009
The six-story New Law Tenement building at 510 East 13th Street in the East Village, owned by 508-510 E 13 LLC, has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues in recent years, particularly in 2025. Most concerning are multiple recent complaints and violations relating to unsanitary conditions, including reports of mold, pests, and paint issues between April and June 2025. The building has also faced several plumbing and heating system concerns, including a May 2025 complaint about loss of heat and hot water that was reportedly resolved during inspection.
Current lead paint hazards have been identified in Apartment 12, with open Class C violations noting deterioration of window frames and doors requiring correction. The property has been subject to multiple complaints about illegal occupancy and work without permits throughout 2024-2025, with some resulting in Oath violations. The building's infrastructure and maintenance history shows persistent challenges with basic services and safety systems.
There have been repeated issues with pest control, evidenced by both housing maintenance code complaints and multiple rodent inspection results indicating rat activity between 2023 and 2025. Multiple plumbing-related complaints were filed in 2025, though many were found not to violate housing laws upon inspection. The property has also had concerns regarding its dry cleaning facility on the ground floor, with active Environmental Control Board violations from 2022 related to unauthorized work and sprinkler system deficiencies, resulting in significant financial penalties. While there have been some resolved violations and maintenance issues, such as completed repairs in Apartment 12 related to paint and plaster concerns, the current level of open violations and recent service requests suggests ongoing maintenance challenges that may affect resident comfort and safety.
