59 Stanton Street, Manhattan, NY 10002

The three-story, four-unit building at 59 Stanton Street in the Lower East Side, owned by Julie Yim and constructed in 1901, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, between September and October 2023, the building faced multiple emergency water leak complaints, classified as "Heavy Flow," though no violations were issued following HPD inspections. The property has a documented pattern of rodent issues, with the most recent concern emerging in mid-2025, showing a cycle of rat activity and bait application, with inspections revealing both rat activity and compliance passing.

Historical records from 2019-2021 indicate serious violations related to illegal transient use of units and safety concerns, particularly regarding inadequate egress and fire system issues in apartments #3A and #3B, resulting in fines totaling $3,125. These violations were subsequently resolved, as indicated by records showing certification of correction. The building's maintenance history includes frequent 311 complaints, with a notable cluster of water-related issues in 2023 and recurring rodent problems throughout the years.

However, more recent documentation shows improved pest control efforts, with compliance inspections passing as of 2025. The property has maintained an active bedbug reporting record from 2022-2025, showing no infested units in recent filings and indicating successful eradication of previously affected units. The building's owner has complied with bedbug reporting requirements in the most recent filing, dated July 2025, showing zero infested and re-infested units, though noting the eradication of all four dwelling units.
