80 Wooster Street, Manhattan, NY 10012

The seven-story, 10-unit residential building at 80 Wooster Street in SoHo, owned by Tim Howard, was constructed in 1894 and serves as a joint residential/artists' space. The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, most notably a heat and hot water problem affecting the entire building in March 2025, which was reportedly resolved but required resident follow-up through HPD.

There are currently five active Department of Buildings violations from June 2023 related to the failure to file external low-pressure inspection reports for the years 2018-2022, and one violation from November 2019 concerning an annual boiler inspection report. The building's maintenance history shows periodic focus on bedbug reporting compliance, with all recent filings (2021-2024) indicating zero infested units. The property has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections between 2011 and 2024, suggesting effective pest management.

A 2018 exterior maintenance violation was resolved, which involved spalled bricks and a flower box issue on the western elevation. The building has a permit from October 2021 for unspecified work under job number 140987225. While the building has had its share of violations, recent records indicate improved compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, though the failure to maintain up-to-date external low-pressure inspection filings remains a notable concern.
