25 East 7th Street, Manhattan, NY 10003

The 10-unit, 5-story building at 25 East 7th Street in the East Village, built in 1880 and currently owned by Herlien Third LLC, has experienced recurring issues with building-wide heating and hot water systems, with multiple emergency complaints filed in 2018, 2019, 2021, and most recently in November 2023. The building is currently facing an open electrical complaint regarding lighting issues as of January 2025.

Safety concerns have also been documented, including a broken window guard reported in July 2019 and an undetermined ventilation issue from July 2019. While the property has had several inspections related to rodent activity, the most recent inspections in 2025 and 2024 resulted in passing grades, though there was one instance of rat activity noted in mid-2024. The building has consistently filed bedbug reports annually from 2021 through January 2025, with no reported infestations in any of the filing periods.

The property owner has received three separate violations in 2021, 2022, and 2023 regarding the failure to file the annual bedbug report, though these were classified as "Class A" violations rather than indicating any current infestation issues. There have also been two complaints regarding construction work without proper permits in 2019 and 2021, though both were ultimately closed with no violations found. The building's maintenance record shows the most pressing current issue is the open electrical complaint from January 2025, while the heating system's recurring problems suggest ongoing infrastructure challenges.
