42 Rivington Street, Manhattan, NY 10002
42 Rivington Street is a 6-story, 31-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Jake Frank. The building has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most recent cluster of complaints occurring in June 2025, including heat/hot water problems and various door/window maintenance issues.
Of particular concern is the potential lead-based paint condition identified in the ceiling and wall inspections from June 2025. The building has also faced pest management challenges, with documented infestations of mice and roaches in Apartment 13 between February and May 2024, though the most recent rodent inspection in June 2025 passed. The property has a history of safety-related violations, including a significant violation from 2019 regarding unauthorized work continuation during a stop-work order, which resulted in a penalty of $12,500.
More recent safety concerns were addressed in early 2024 when Apartments 13 and 23 had issues with pest infestations and faulty safety equipment, though these violations were ultimately closed following necessary repairs. The building's systems and infrastructure have been subject to various emergency complaints, including heat/hot water issues and infrastructure concerns, though most have been resolved through inspections. It's worth noting that there have been no documented bedbug infestations in recent years, with the building reporting zero instances in all filings since 2021.
