41 East 7th Street, Manhattan, NY 10003

41 East 7th Street is a 6-story, 22-unit residential building constructed in 1903 and currently owned by John Ilibassi, located in the East Village neighborhood of New York City. The building has experienced several maintenance issues over recent years, with clusters of problems recorded in late 2018 and spring 2019.

The most significant incidents occurred in December 2018, when multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding water leaks with heavy flow, mold, and various paint/plaster issues on ceilings and walls, along with non-emergency concerns about flooring/stairs and general mailbox problems. A similar pattern of maintenance issues emerged in May 2019, including complaints about no lighting, ceiling problems, and mold, though these were subsequently inspected by HPD with varying results in terms of violations. More recently, a "Failure to Maintain" complaint was filed in February 2022, though no violations were found at the time of inspection.

The building has maintained an impressive record regarding pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported in any of the annual filings between 2018 and 2024, showing consistent zero counts for infested, eradicated, and re-infested units. Additionally, thorough rodent inspections conducted annually since 2020 have resulted in "Passed" results every time, with the most recent inspections occurring in January and July 2025, indicating effective pest management practices. While the building has experienced periodic maintenance issues in the past, the recent consistent records of pest control success and rodent inspection compliance suggest improved management of these particular concerns in recent years.
