99 Orchard Street, Manhattan, NY 10002
99 Orchard Street is a 5-story, 15-unit old law tenement building located in Manhattan's Lower East Side, currently owned by Peter Liang and constructed in 1910. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years, with the most pressing concern being a rat infestation problem, as evidenced by multiple inspections in 2024 and 2025 showing both rat activity and compliance failures.
The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene issued violations in December 2024, indicating ongoing pest control challenges. Other notable maintenance issues include a water leak problem reported in October 2023 and a sanitation violation related to garbage/recycling storage documented in June 2022, for which violations were issued and subsequently corrected by May 2023. The building's history also includes three Department of Buildings complaints from 2020 related to illegal hotel rooms, site conditions endangering workers, and construction enforcement, though these appear to have been resolved with varying outcomes.
An Environmental Control Board violation was recorded in January 2020 regarding chipping in the archway over the residential entrance. Interestingly, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations over the past five years, with no reported cases between 2020 and 2024, and the most recent filings (2024) show zero infested or re-infested units. The property has undergone regular rodent control inspections, with bait applications recorded in late 2022 and various inspection results ranging from "Passed" to "Rat Activity" between 2022 and 2025, suggesting ongoing efforts to address the rodent issue.
