121 Orchard Street, Manhattan, NY 10002

121 Orchard Street, a 6-story, 14-unit Old Law Tenement built in 1900, currently owned by Orson Holding Corp, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues in recent months, with two emergency complaints filed in March and April 2025 that were not able to be inspected due to access issues. The building has maintained a good record regarding pest issues, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past five years between 2020-2025.

The property has undergone regular rodent inspections and has passed all ten inspections conducted between 2019 and 2025, indicating effective pest management. The building's maintenance history shows some concerns regarding access for inspections and plumbing work. In 2019, there was a gas utility referral and a subsequent stop-work order that was fully rescinded, though access for plumbing work inspection was denied in October 2019.

More recently, permits were issued in September 2019 for electrical work (job number 140869610). It's worth noting that while there have been heat complaints in 2025, these issues appear to be access-related rather than systemic heating problems, as the Department of Housing Preservation and Development has been unable to gain entry to the units for inspection. The building's overall inspection record suggests regular compliance with health and safety requirements, though the recent heat complaints indicate some ongoing maintenance challenges.
