84 East 2nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10003

The five-story, eight-unit residential building at 84 East 2nd Street, owned by Roben Rabanipour and constructed in 1900, has experienced several noteworthy events in recent years. Most concerning was a food poisoning complaint investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene in February 2024, though the department determined it was an isolated incident. The building has had three consecutive bedbug violation notices from 2021 to 2023, though recent bedbug reports for 2023-2025 confirm zero infested or re-infested units.

Heat and hot water issues were reported and resolved in October 2020. The building's rodent inspection history reveals some variability, with recent inspections in 2024 showing both compliance issues (rat activity in May 2024) and passing results (most recent in April 2025). The property has maintained active compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with no documented infestations since 2019-2020.

The most recent rodent inspection in April 2025 passed, though there was a failed inspection in April 2024 for unspecified reasons. While the building shows generally good maintenance of basic systems, the historical pattern of rodent inspections and bedbug violations suggests ongoing monitoring of pest control measures is necessary. The property has shown improvements in some areas, particularly in maintaining a bedbug-free status over the past two years, though the periodic rodent activity remains a concern that the owner has addressed with some regularity.
