435 East 6th Street, Manhattan, NY 10009

The five-story, 10-unit building at 435 East 6th Street in the East Village, owned by Charles Campos, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, most notably a recurring lack of heat and hot water in October-November 2023 that prompted multiple emergency complaints across the entire building. While some heating issues appeared to be resolved by December 2022, the building has since faced ongoing challenges with rodent activity, as evidenced by multiple complaints and inspection results showing rat activity in 2025, particularly around January, February, and March 2025, despite repeated bait applications. The building's safety compliance record shows several open violations as of 2024-2025, including required repairs to self-closing doors in various locations (including the 4R and 5th-story bulkhead doors), the need for carbon monoxide and smoke detector repairs in apartment 4R, and an outstanding bedbug reporting requirement from 2024.

The property has a documented history of heat and hot water-related issues dating back to 2019, with multiple emergency complaints filed across different years. Recent inspections in 2025 have shown consistent rodent activity despite baiting efforts. The building's maintenance record shows both Class B and C violations, indicating varying levels of severity, particularly concerning door closure mechanisms and safety equipment.

While the building underwent some work in 2019, including electrical and plumbing permits, the persistent nature of the heat, water, and pest issues suggests ongoing challenges with building systems and maintenance response times. The most recent bedbug report from October 2023 indicated no current infestations, though prior reporting periods showed historical activity patterns. (Note: This report is based on data available up to October 2023 and does not include any events or changes that may have occurred after that date.)
