219 Mulberry Street, Manhattan, NY 10012

219 Mulberry Street is a 6-story, 25-unit New Law Tenement building located in Nolita, constructed in 1890 and currently owned by 219 Mulberry, LLC. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues over recent years, with particularly notable problems in apartment 19, including multiple emergency complaints related to stair flooring, plumbing issues (bathtub/shower), heat/hot water, and various violations in 2023-2024 including pest infestation, door maintenance, and carbon monoxide detector issues.

The property has also faced plumbing problems, evidenced by a 2025 emergency complaint, and electrical concerns with a violation noted in June 2024 regarding exposed wiring and an unsafe outlet installation in apartment 18, which resulted in a $400 penalty. The building's maintenance history reveals persistent challenges with sanitation, including documented pest issues in 2023, garbage/recycling storage violations in 2022, and various plumbing problems. There have been multiple unsuccessful inspection attempts by HPD to address flooring and plumbing complaints, though some heating issues were resolved relatively quickly.

The property has maintained an active bedbug monitoring program from 2019-2024, with most recent filings showing no current infestations, and rodent inspections have generally yielded passing results, though there were failures noted in early 2023. Recent Department of Buildings activity includes several historical complaints about construction work and building maintenance, with some investigations resulting in either no violations found or Oath violations served. Notably, while the building has experienced various maintenance issues requiring attention, many complaints have been addressed through HPD inspections or administrative closures, though some violations remain open as of the most recent inspection dates.
