212 Avenue B, Manhattan, NY 10009
212 Avenue B is a 6-story, 24-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Calynne Oyolokor. The property has experienced recurring heating issues, most notably a December 2024 heat and hot water complaint affecting the entire building that closed due to lack of access for inspection.
The building has faced several regulatory challenges, including multiple allegations of illegal hotel conversions between 2018-2023, with the most recent December 2023 complaint also resulting in inspector access issues. There are ongoing rodent control concerns; while the most recent May 2025 inspection passed, previous inspections throughout 2024 and 2023 frequently documented rat activity or other failures. The building has open housing maintenance code violations from 2018 requiring proper signage posting, and between 2019-2021, six ECB violations were issued for failure to comply with commissioner’s orders, though these were subsequently resolved.
The property has maintained a clean bedbug record over the past eight reporting periods (2018-2025), with no infestations reported in any units. The building's recent history shows some improvements in certain areas, such as the passing rodent inspection in May 2025, and the most recent food establishment complaint from May 2024 was resolved through standard health department procedures. However, the persistent nature of heating system issues, repeated illegal conversion allegations, and ongoing rodent control challenges suggest that these remain areas of concern for resident comfort and building maintenance.
