225 East 12th Street, Manhattan, NY 10003

225 East 12th Street is a four-story, nine-unit apartment building located in the East Village, constructed in 1925 and currently owned by Jeppy Bruci. The building has experienced some maintenance challenges in recent years, with an active Department of Buildings violation as of June 2023 regarding the failure to file the 2020 external low-pressure inspection.

The property has a history of bedbug reporting violations, with notices of violation issued in 2021 and 2022, though these appear to have been administrative in nature. Notably, the building has consistently demonstrated effective pest management, as evidenced by six consecutive years of bedbug reports from 2018 through 2024 showing no infested units, and all recent filings confirming zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units.

The building's rodent inspection history reveals some environmental challenges, though recent compliance is promising. The most recent rodent inspection in May 2025 resulted in a "Passed" status, following an initial inspection in April 2025 that noted "Rat Activity." Prior to this, the building had a consistent record of passing rodent inspections since 2022, with one instance of rat activity recorded in April 2021. This pattern suggests ongoing vigilance is required regarding pest management in common areas, though the overall trend shows improvement with recent passed inspections and no recorded violations in the past year.
