322 East 6th Street, Manhattan, NY 10003

322 East 6th Street is a 5-story, 20-unit old law tenement building located in the East Village, built in 1863 and currently owned by Rony Oved. The building has experienced several notable maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most concerning being recurring heat and water supply problems. In November 2019, there was a documented loss of heat and hot water affecting the entire building, though these were reportedly restored during the HPD investigation.

More recently, in early 2022, there were plumbing issues related to water supply that required intervention from HPD, though no violations were ultimately issued. The building has also faced ventilation problems in January 2022 that prompted a DOHMH intervention, and in late 2019, there were concerns about doors/windows that HPD was unable to inspect at that time. The property has had multiple rodent inspections in recent years, with the most recent compliance inspections in 2025 showing rat activity, which is concerning from a health and safety perspective.

However, there have been no bedbug infestations reported in the past six years, with all annual filings showing zero infested units. The building's maintenance history shows regular testing and inspection for both bedbugs and rodents, with variable results for the latter, including both passed and failed inspections. There was also one instance of reported illegal after-hours work in January 2022, though no violations were found upon inspection. While the building has had its share of issues, it's worth noting that many of the complaints have been addressed and closed without violations, though some concerns, particularly regarding heat/hot water and rodent activity, appear to be recurring problems.
