265 East 10th Street, Manhattan, NY 10009

265 East 10th Street is a 5-story, 8-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1900, currently owned by John Moran and located in Manhattan's East Village neighborhood. The building has experienced several notable incidents over recent years, with the most concerning being a verified mold complaint in May 2022 that resulted in an HPD investigation, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the condition. Two separate smoking-related incidents were reported and closed in 2023-2024, and a food establishment complaint regarding lack of permit or license was also filed in 2023, with all these issues being administratively addressed.

The property has maintained an active record of compliance with various health and safety inspections. All recent rodent inspections from 2022 through 2025 have either passed or were successfully corrected, with only one failure noted in January 2023 for unspecified "Other Reasons," which was likely resolved given subsequent results. The building's bedbug reporting history from 2019 through 2023 shows consistent compliance, with no reported infestations or re-infestations during any of the annual reporting periods.

Two Housing Maintenance Code violations were recorded in 2021 and 2023 regarding the filing of annual bedbug reports, though these appear to have been adequately resolved based on subsequent filings showing no infestations. The most recent inspection records from 2025 show a passed rodent inspection in July 2025, indicating ongoing compliance with health and safety regulations. The building's management has demonstrated responsiveness to complaints, though there have been instances where inspectors were unable to gain access for verification, such as in the 2022 mold case. The property has maintained regular bedbug reporting with consistent zero-infested unit counts, suggesting proactive management of this particular issue.
