81 Delancey Street, Manhattan, NY 10002
The five-story Old Law Tenement building at 81 Delancey Street in the Lower East Side, owned by Morris Vogel and dating back to 1910, has experienced several recurring compliance issues in recent years. Most notably, there is an ongoing pattern of violations related to bedbug report filings, with three consecutive open violations in 2022, 2023, and 2024, though one from 2021 was eventually certified as resolved.
The building currently faces multiple active Department of Buildings violations regarding missed external low pressure inspections for 2022 and 2023, as well as an unresolved violation from 2019 concerning an annual boiler inspection from 2017. An elevator-related violation issued in 2019 for failing to file the required Category 1 inspection/test was dismissed in 2021.
Despite these regulatory challenges, the building has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections, with successful results in all ten inspections conducted between 2019 and 2025. A single 311 service request related to a food preparation location was filed in late 2018 and was administratively closed in mid-2024 after the reported issue was addressed. While the building shows compliance with some health and safety standards through its successful rodent inspections, the recurring bedbug report violations and multiple open building violations regarding inspection filings suggest ongoing regulatory oversight challenges.
