186 Grand Street, Manhattan, NY 10013

186 Grand Street is a 6-story, 5-unit residential building constructed in 1900 in Little Italy, owned by Hassan Gholizadeh. The building has experienced several maintenance issues over the past five years, with the most concerning being food safety-related incidents. Between 2019 and 2022, there were multiple food-related complaints, including food poisoning cases, rodent activity, and food containing foreign objects, though recent rodent inspections in 2023 and 2024 passed without issues.

The building faced some structural and maintenance challenges, including a water leak and door problems in 2020 (which were investigated by HPD but resulted in no violations), and a wall-related complaint in 2022 that was also deemed without violation. Elevated concerns emerged in 2021 regarding vaccine mandate compliance at a food establishment within the building. The property has demonstrated improved maintenance in recent years, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past three years (2022-2025), and all recent bedbug reports showing zero infested or re-infested units.

The building's elevator system was cited for failing to correct defects in a 2019 inspection, though this violation was later dismissed. Mandatory annual bedbug reporting requirements were not properly filed in 2021-2022, resulting in violations, but subsequent filings have shown compliance with zero reported infestations. While the building experienced various issues in the past related to both residential and commercial components, recent inspections and reporting suggest improved conditions, with particular attention to food safety and pest management being maintained through regular inspections and passing results.
