22 Spring Street, Manhattan, NY 10012

22 Spring Street is a 5-story, 16-unit residential building located in Nolita, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Sassan Mahfar. The property has experienced multiple maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing concern being an open ventilation system complaint filed in June 2025. The building has faced several significant infrastructure challenges, particularly relating to water systems, with multiple plumbing-related complaints in 2024-2025 including issues with bathtubs/showers and sinks, though many of these were eventually closed after inspections.

A cluster of heating and hot water complaints in December 2024 affected both individual apartments and the entire building, though these were also resolved according to HPD records. Apartment 11 has been cited for multiple open violations as of September 2024, including defective plumbing fixtures, fire safety equipment issues, and various maintenance problems affecting both the bathroom and foyer areas. The building's recent history includes some concerning safety and maintenance patterns, such as a rat sighting in September 2024 and multiple rodent inspections showing variable results between 2021 and 2025.

There was an illegal conversion investigation in 2021-2022 regarding Apartment 9, which was found to have been improperly modified to create additional bedrooms, resulting in ECB violations and a monetary penalty. The property has also experienced challenges with building systems beyond individual units, including a roofing complaint in October 2024. While there have been no bedbug infestations reported in recent years (2017-2020), the building's maintenance record suggests ongoing challenges with various systems and infrastructure, particularly in the most recently occupied unit (Apartment 11).
