328 East 6th Street, Manhattan, NY 10003

328 East 6th Street is a 5-story, 16-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1863, currently owned by Hussain Ahmed. The property has experienced persistent heating and hot water issues throughout 2025, with ten separate complaints filed between January and March of that year, though most were either resolved or closed due to lack of access for inspection. The building has undergone several regulatory inspections revealing various maintenance violations.

In September 2023, three "A" class violations were noted regarding required safety signage on the entrance floor, while a "C" class violation was issued for defective self-closing doors in Apartment 7. Issues with the building's entrance security were documented in late 2022, and additional violations were recorded in Apartment 16 in September 2022 concerning electrical and flooring conditions. The property has a history of unauthorized work complaints, particularly in 2019, 2021, and 2022, with an active violation from 2022 regarding unpermitted modifications to a bathroom skylight in Apartment 16, resulting in a $500 penalty.

While the building has maintained a relatively clean record for pest control, with no reported bedbug infestations since 2021, it has faced challenges with rat activity in 2022, 2023, and 2024, though recent inspections in March 2025 showed compliance. Three "C" class violations from 2022 concerned obstructions to fire escapes and security door issues, though most violations from 2022-2023 have been closed or certified as corrected. The building's heating system continues to present recurring issues, as evidenced by multiple 311 complaints and Housing Maintenance Code violations throughout early 2025.
