88 Orchard Street, Manhattan, NY 10002
88 Orchard Street is a five-story, eight-unit old law tenement located in Manhattan's Lower East Side, built in 1900 and currently owned by Susan Sahim. The building has a mixed record regarding resident health and safety over recent years. The most recent incident in May 2025 involved a smoking complaint in a non-smoking area, which was investigated by the NYC Health Department.
The property has experienced recurring food establishment violations, particularly between 2022-2024, including issues with bare hands in contact with food, and pest-related problems, though these complaints were ultimately administratively closed. From 2022 through early 2025, the building underwent several rodent inspections, with the most recent three (June 2025, December 2024, and June 2024) passing successfully, indicating improved pest control measures. However, 2022 was marked by multiple inspections indicating rat activity, suggesting a period of significant rodent issues.
Importantly, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all four annual bedbug reports from 2021-2023 showing zero infested units and no instances of eradication or re-infestation. While there was one food poisoning complaint in 2018, the prompt response from the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene was noted. The property has demonstrated compliance with regular rodent inspections in recent years, though there were multiple violations recorded in 2022 indicating initial rodent activity.
