110 1st Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10009

The five-story tenement building at 110 1st Avenue in the East Village, owned by Taras Lozowy, has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, with the most notable recent concerns being two complaints filed in March 2025 regarding a ceiling painting/plaster issue and a slow water leak. Both complaints were marked as "Closed," though HPD was unable to complete inspections and advised re-filing if conditions persisted.

The building had a significant violation related to its heating system in February 2022, resulting in an ECB violation for not displaying the boiler room sign properly, with an associated penalty of $655 that appears to have been resolved. While the building has maintained a consistent record of submitting bedbug reports showing zero infestations between 2020 and 2025, and has generally passed rodent inspections, there have been some concerning patterns. Notably, 2023 saw two initial rodent inspections indicating "Rat Activity" in February and "Rats in Basement" in April, though subsequent inspections in late 2024 and 2025 returned to "Passed" status.

An August 2022 inspection for rat activity was also passed. The building's food establishment underwent a DOHMH inspection in June 2023 for improper food handling practices, though the issue was reported as addressed. All violations and complaints appear to have been properly filed and addressed according to city records, with the most recent bedbug filing in June 2025 continuing the building's pattern of zero reported infestations.
