93 East 7th Street, Manhattan, NY 10009

93 East 7th Street is a 5-story, 14-unit old law tenement building constructed in 1872, currently owned by Baldev Vadehra. The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, with particular concerns around building systems and public health. Most notably, there have been recurring rodent-related incidents, with multiple service requests and inspections revealing rat activity between 2023 and 2025, though recent rodent inspections in 2025 showed improved compliance.

The building has faced various infrastructure challenges, including a heavy water leak in 2024, power outages, and problems with heating and hot water systems in early 2023, all of which were addressed without violations being issued. Multiple violations were recorded in 2024 regarding fire safety compliance, particularly concerning self-closing doors and fire escape egress, though these have since been closed. The building's recent history shows a pattern of unresolved and recurring issues, particularly from 2022-2024, including problems with building maintenance, unsanitary conditions, and pest control.

While there have been no reported bedbug infestations since 2020, the building has faced ongoing challenges with garbage management and recycling storage. The Department of Buildings records indicate a boiler-related violation from 2020 with active penalties, though this appears to be unrelated to current operations. The most recent inspections show some improvement in building conditions, particularly with passing rodent inspections in 2025, though historical patterns suggest ongoing attention to maintenance and public health matters may still be required.
