203 Mott Street, Manhattan, NY 10012

203 Mott Street is a 5-story, 16-unit old law tenement building located in Nolita, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Weitzner Shih. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with eight emergency complaints filed in late 2023 alone, all reportedly verified as corrected by HPD.

Other maintenance concerns in 2023 included plumbing issues (toilets and sinks), flooring problems, and various apartment-specific complaints. Notably, apartment 4 has documented violations from April 2024 regarding mice infestation, bathroom maintenance (bathtub and faucet issues), window guard compliance, and security concerns, all of which were certified as corrected by April 25, 2024. The building has faced some significant regulatory issues, particularly in 2021-2022, including two illegal conversion complaints and work without a permit related to outdoor heating units and lighting, resulting in two active ECB violations with associated penalties totaling $12,500.

However, the property has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections, with the most recent inspections in 2025 showing no issues. While there's no current bedbug infestation, with multiple reports from 2022-2025 showing zero infested units, the building's average monthly rent is relatively high at approximately $3,750 per unit (as of Spring 2025). Recent maintenance patterns show active response to complaints, though the frequency of heat-related issues suggests ongoing infrastructure challenges.
