81 Rivington Street, Manhattan, NY 10002
81 Rivington Street is a 5-story, 16-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Manhattan's Lower East Side, owned by Donald Galishoff and dating back to 1900. The building has undergone regular oversight and inspections from various city agencies, with no major recurring issues affecting resident safety or comfort. Most notably, the building has maintained a perfect record in recent rodent inspections from 2019 through 2025, consistently passing all evaluations.
The property has demonstrated effective bedbug management, with annual reporting from 2019-2024 showing zero infestations or eradications needed. Recent service requests and inspections indicate generally proper building maintenance, though there have been isolated incidents requiring attention. In 2024, there was a mobile food vendor equipment complaint involving the Health Department, and in late 2023-2024, there were two violations related to smoking and unsanitary garbage/recycling storage.
The Department of Housing Preservation and Development responded to a heat/hot water complaint in 2019, which was promptly resolved. The building's violation history shows one bedbug reporting violation in 2021, though subsequent inspections from 2021-2025 indicate no further infestations. Several complaints regarding illegal conversion, work without permits, and site conditions were filed between 2020-2023, but inspections determined no violations warranted for the building at those times. The property has maintained compliance with the Housing Maintenance Code, with all reported issues being addressed and closed through proper channels.
