431 Broome Street, Manhattan, NY 10013

431 Broome Street is a 5-story converted Class B building located in SoHo, owned by Vincent Boitier and dating back to 1825. The property has experienced several significant events in recent years, most notably a cluster of health department violations in early 2025, with multiple service requests related to food establishment concerns including water, ventilation, toxic materials, sodium warnings, sewage, pest control, odor, plumbing, and licensing issues – all of which were ultimately closed. The building currently has an open Class A violation from April 2024 regarding the failure to file an annual bedbug report, though previous bedbug reports from 2021-2022 indicated no infestations.

The property has demonstrated consistent rodent-free status through regular inspections from 2011 to 2024, passing all inspections during this period. Recent building operations have included multiple construction-related complaints in early 2025, though inspections found no violations warranting action. An active Environmental Control Board violation from July 2024 pertains to unauthorized occupancy of the first floor courtyard area, with a penalty of $1,250.

The building's elevator system has had periodic attention, with a 2019 violation regarding unresolved defects from a 2017 inspection, though this was eventually dismissed. Historical records show routine compliance with rodent inspections and other maintenance requirements, suggesting generally good upkeep of building systems. The property has maintained its certificate of occupancy requirements, with inspections showing conformance to basic safety standards despite the recent cluster of food establishment violations.
