118 Stanton Street, Manhattan, NY 10002

118 Stanton Street is a 5-story, 11-unit residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Alan Cheung, located in the Lower East Side neighborhood. The building has experienced persistent heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints recorded between 2021-2025, including an April 2025 heating complaint that was resolved through verification of corrected conditions. The property has also faced several safety and maintenance challenges, particularly in 2022-2023, including problems with cooking gas supply, pest infestations, and various maintenance issues such as cabinet problems and violations related to smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 3B.

The building's infrastructure has shown signs of wear, with open violations as of 2023 related to roof leaks, fire retardant materials, and general maintenance requirements. Recent rodent inspections between 2023-2025 have yielded mixed results, with periodic rat activity and bait application noted in late 2024, though the most recent inspection in June 2025 passed. The building has maintained proper bedbug reporting compliance, with zero infestations reported in the past two annual filings (2024-2025).

Notably, there are multiple open violations regarding the failure to file external low-pressure inspections between 2019-2023, suggesting ongoing regulatory compliance issues. The property has a history of 311 service requests related to various maintenance matters, though most have been resolved without issued violations. While the building has experienced significant maintenance challenges in recent years, particularly concerning heating systems and general upkeep, recent rodent inspections indicate improved conditions as of mid-2025, and no new violations have been recorded since the outstanding low-pressure inspection citations were issued.
