68 Thompson Street, Manhattan, NY 10012
68 Thompson Street is a 6-story, 39-unit New Law tenement building located in SoHo, constructed in 1904 and currently owned by Ralph Tawil. The building has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, with the most recent being a plumbing complaint regarding the bathtub/shower in early 2025, which HPD was unable to fully investigate. The building has had two indoor air quality complaints in 2021, one of which remains open, and a housing maintenance violation from 2021 requiring the filing of an annual bedbug report, though subsequent reports from 2022-2025 show no reported infestations.
Significant safety concerns were evident in 2018-2020, with violations regarding window guards in public areas and multiple complaints about egress issues in 2022, though inspections found no violations at those times. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to pest control, with annual rodent inspections consistently passing from 2016 through early 2025. There have been three resolved DOB violations (2019-2021) related to elevator certification and various complaints about work without permits, though inspections generally found no violations.
The most recent bedbug reports from 2022-2025 show zero infested units, suggesting effective management of this concern. The building has also received several HPD inspections related to various complaints, though not all inspections were completed or resulted in violations. While the building has had its share of maintenance issues, the rapid response to complaints and regular inspections indicate ongoing management oversight, with particular attention paid to pest control and safety requirements through various permits and inspections.
