80 Thompson Street, Manhattan, NY 10012

80 Thompson Street in SoHo is a 5-story, 18-unit residential building constructed in 1888, currently owned by Marc Shore. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues, most notably a series of Housing Maintenance Code violations documented in August 2017, including an open class C violation regarding access to the heating system, and multiple class A violations related to safety signage requirements. While four of these violations (smoke detector requirements, carbon monoxide detection device requirements, heating system access, and superintendent contact information) were eventually certified as corrected by March 2020, there remains at least one open violation from 2017 concerning heating system access.

More recent concerns have emerged regarding potential unlawful short-term rentals, with two complaints filed in 2023 and 2024 about illegal hotel room activity, though inspections resulted in either insufficient information or access denial. The building's maintenance record shows generally positive outcomes in terms of pest control, with no reported cases of bedbugs in the past seven years (2019-2025). The property has maintained consistent rodent inspection compliance, passing all inspections since 2019, though there was one failure in July 2018 for unspecified reasons.

The most recent rodent inspection in January 2025 also passed. The presence of multiple buildings violations from 2017-2020 and recent complaints about potential illegal short-term rentals suggest ongoing regulatory challenges, though the building has demonstrated successful pest and rodent management over the past several years. Of particular note is the most recent bedbug report for the period ending October 2024, which recorded zero infested units, maintaining the building's clear record in this regard since 2018.
