448 Broome Street, Manhattan, NY 10013

448 Broome Street, a 5-story New Law Tenement built in 1871 in SoHo and owned by Iris Stewart, has experienced a recent notable issue with unsanitary conditions related to mold, as evidenced by two simultaneous complaints filed on May 29, 2025, which were inspected by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development but resulted in no violations being issued. The building has maintained a consistent record of rodent inspection compliance, passing all ten inspections conducted between 2014 and 2024, which suggests effective pest management practices.

Interestingly, while the property has undergone regular bedbug reporting between 2019 and 2024, the records show no actual infestations, infestations resolved, or re-infestation cases during these periods, indicating successful prevention measures. The building's documented history shows just one permit issued in recent years, a plumbing permit dated August 20, 2018, under job number 123022184.

Despite the recent mold complaints, the property's overall maintenance record suggests active management, particularly in terms of rodent control. The frequency and regularity of various inspections, including rodent inspections and housing maintenance code compliance checks, reflect a generally responsive management approach to building maintenance and tenant concerns, though the recent mold incident marks a deviation from this pattern of consistent regulatory compliance.
