165 Chrystie Street, Manhattan, NY 10002

Located in the Lower East Side, 165 Chrystie Street is a 10-story, 8-unit residential building that was completed in 2017 under the ownership of Valerie Fiume. The building's history reveals a number of significant events, particularly during its early years of operation. Notably, there were multiple construction safety compliance actions in 2019, with at least five complaints related to construction safety, including one that resulted in a Stop Work Order violation for non-compliant after-hours work.

Several plumbing-related issues were recorded between 2019-2020, including a defective/leaking plumbing complaint in 2020 which led to a Stop Work Order that was later fully rescinded. The building has experienced recurring issues with debris, with three complaints recorded in 2019, 2022, and 2023, though inspections did not always result in violations being found. An illegal after-hours work complaint in 2021 also resulted in no violation being warranted upon inspection.

Compliance issues were documented in 2018 regarding failure to certify corrections on immediately hazardous ECB violations, though these were subsequently dismissed. More recent concerns include a bedbug report from 2022 covering the period from late 2020 to late 2021, though it indicated no infested or re-infested units. The most recent Department of Buildings (DOB) violation on record from July 2021 was resolved by November 2022, related to elevator certification. Despite these various issues, many earlier violations and complaints have been resolved or dismissed, and multiple permits for work have been issued throughout 2020-2022 for various construction and plumbing activities, suggesting ongoing management and maintenance of the building.
