121 St Marks Place, Manhattan, NY 10009
121 St. Marks Place is a 6-story, 30-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1907 and currently managed by Eric Borkowski. The building has experienced persistent maintenance issues in recent years, with multiple open violations as of March 2025, including concerns about unsanitary conditions, safety equipment, and structural maintenance.
Most notably, there are currently open complaints regarding unsanitary conditions (pests), garbage/recycling storage issues, electrical problems (wiring and outlets), and safety equipment deficiencies (carbon monoxide and smoke detectors). Previous violations have indicated problems with flooring/ stairs, plumbing, and various pest infestations, particularly involving mice and bedbugs. Recent inspections have revealed multiple ongoing maintenance concerns, including an open housing maintenance code violation from September 2024 related to a defective self-closing door in Apartment 32, and an open violation from March 2024 concerning mold, pests, and safety equipment issues in Apartment 19.
The building's inspection history shows some improvements in rodent control, with most recent inspections passing, though there were failed inspections in August 2023 and October 2023 for unspecified reasons. While the property has maintained a consistent record of reporting zero infested units in its bedbug reports from 2018 through 2024, the frequency of pest complaints suggests ongoing challenges with building maintenance. The building also faced an Environmental Control Board violation in 2022 regarding an improperly installed air conditioner partially obstructing an exit passageway, which resulted in a fine of approximately $1,562.
