211 East 10th Street, Manhattan, NY 10003

The 6-story, 20-unit building at 211 East 10th Street, owned by 211 East 10th Street, LLC, has experienced recurring heating, window, and pest issues over recent years. Most notably, there has been a concerning pattern of heating problems, with multiple resident complaints in 2025 (February) and one building-wide outage in February 2023, all designated as emergencies, though inspections were often impeded by access issues. The building is also dealing with persistent window frame issues, with HPD inspectors unable to gain access during four separate complaints between 2019 and 2025.

Rodent control has been a significant concern, with multiple "Rat Activity" findings in 2024, though recent inspections (May 2025 and December 2024) have passed. The property has maintained a clean record for bedbugs over the past three years (2021-2024), with no reported infestations. The building's history reveals several maintenance challenges, particularly in Apartment 9, which was documented in 2019 with multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations including problems with window balances, plastered surfaces, kitchen fixtures, and electrical components.

While most of these violations were certified as corrected by late 2019 or early 2021, the building has continued to grapple with infrastructure issues. The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) has responded to various emergency complaints, though limited access has often prevented thorough inspections and resolution verification. Recent 311 complaints in 2025 for heat/hot water and window frame issues remain particularly concerning due to inspection access problems, with HPD recommending re-filing if issues persist. The building's last known pest problems, while significant in 2020 and 2022, appear to have been addressed based on subsequent inspection results.
