115 Avenue A, Manhattan, NY 10009

115 Avenue A is a 4-story, 4-unit Old Law Tenement building located in the East Village, built in 1900 and currently owned by Ben Soleimani. The building has experienced recurring pest and maintenance issues over the past four years, most notably with rodent sightings and unsanitary conditions, including an active violation as of July 2024 for a mouse infestation in the 4th-floor apartment.

There were also significant infrastructure challenges documented between late 2021 and early 2022, including multiple complaints and violations regarding heat/hot water, cooking gas, and water supply systems, though these issues generally appeared to be resolved following tenant reports. The property has three active Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations from July 2021 related to boiler room safety equipment and maintenance, with penalties totaling $11,875. More recently, in 2025, there were multiple complaints about building stability and unauthorized work, though inspections did not result in any violations.

The building's maintenance record shows regular passing results on rodent inspections conducted every six months since 2020, and there have been no documented bedbug infestations in recent years, with consecutive reports showing zero affected units from 2019 through 2024. The property is also currently facing active violations for failure to file the 2022 external low-pressure inspection report as of April 2023. While these issues indicate ongoing maintenance challenges, the regular passing results of rodent inspections and consistent bedbug reporting suggest some level of proactive management in certain maintenance areas.
