191 Orchard Street, Manhattan, NY 10002
191 Orchard Street is a 5-story, 20-unit Old Law Tenement building located in the Lower East Side, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Fabio Gonzalez. The building has experienced significant recurring issues with heating and hot water systems over the past two years, with multiple HPD complaints filed between December 2024 and January 2025, including seven emergency heat/hot water complaints in December 2024 alone.
Recent maintenance inspections in December 2024 identified several safety compliance issues in Apartment 2C, including defective self-closing doors, inoperable smoke detectors, and a faulty carbon monoxide detector, though these violations were certified as corrected by the owner in January 2025. The building has also faced rodent issues, with multiple bait applications recorded between March and August 2024, though recent inspections from September 2024 and March 2025 have passed. A notable water leak complaint from January 2025 remains unresolved, and there are two open violations regarding unauthorized alterations in Apartment 1A - one related to interior partitions and the other concerning fire escape ladder maintenance.
The property has maintained a clean record with respect to bedbug infestations, with all annual reports from 2019 through 2024 showing zero infested units. While the building has faced challenges with its utility systems and maintenance compliance, particularly in late 2024 through early 2025, recent inspections suggest improving conditions, with the most recent rodent inspection passing in March 2025 and no new bedbug reports. The building's heating system has been a persistent area of concern, evidenced by numerous complaints and violations throughout 2024-2025, and there was an outstanding penalty of $1,562.00 related to boiler inspection report filings from June 2024.
