377 Broome Street, Manhattan, NY 10013

The 5-story, 17-unit Old Law Tenement building at 377 Broome Street in Little Italy, owned by Marla Siegel and constructed in 1900, has experienced several notable incidents over the past five years. Most prominently, there is a persistent pattern of illegal hotel room activity investigations in 2021-2022, with three separate complaints about unauthorized short-term rentals, though inspectors were unable to gain access in two cases, and one case was referred to another department. More recently, in December 2023, there was a complaint about work being conducted without proper permits in the occupied multiple dwelling, which was referred to the Department of Consumer Affairs.

The building has maintained good pest management practices, with bedbug reports filed regularly since 2019 showing zero infested or eradicated units in the most recent 2024 filing period, and it has passed all rodent inspections conducted between 2016 and 2024, indicating effective maintenance of common areas and building systems. The building's recent history shows consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with annual filings demonstrating effective pest management. The most recent inspection records from August 2024 show the building passed its rodent inspection, continuing a pattern of successful pest control efforts.

While there have been multiple complaints regarding illegal hotel rooms, these appear to have been addressed, at least in terms of formal complaints. The only current Housing Maintenance Code violation on record from February 2022 concerned the annual bedbug report filing, though this appears to have been resolved given the subsequent filings showing compliance. The building's overall maintenance record suggests careful attention to pest control, though the presence of recent complaints about unauthorized modifications indicates some ongoing concerns about proper building management and code compliance.
